Introduction

Established in 1969, Enterprise for High School Students (EHSS) is a San Francisco city wide youth development agency that guides teens to explore career interests, find and retain jobs, and engage in experiential learning.

Mission

The mission of EHSS is to increase student preparedness to explore and pursue career paths through training, counseling and guidance; to offer a variety of experiential options within the work world; and to provide a support network to raise youth’s personal expectations for success.

Services

Annually, EHSS serves over 2000 students, ages 14-18, from both public and independent schools. Through a broad array of programs, Enterprise provides a means for students to gain an understanding of how their interests and talents can be integrated into employment, community service, and educational opportunities, while finding his/her potential. Of particular note are the Summer Gardening, Junior Caddie, and Party Assistance programs.

Fund Raising

The San Francisco Fall Antiques Show was established in 1982 as the major fundraising event for EHSS. The SFFAS is ranked among the top such fairs in the world. The event includes the show itself featuring approximately 70 international dealers, a loan exhibition, a lecture series, and related benefit parties.
Another fundraising event for EHSS, the Art Tour, is a unique opportunity to visit the homes of some of San Francisco's prominent art collectors and view their distinguished museum quality private collections.
