Social enterprise and me (New Door Ventures)
I'm now volunteering as a tutor / mentor at New Door Ventures. They are a really cool social enterprise (non-profit) organization in the Mission district in San Francisco.
New Door Ventures’ enterprises exist to provide jobs and job training opportunities for young people with high risk factors and little to no work experience. They operate their businesses with the complementary goals of being financially self-sustaining and graduating youth clients who are ready to work in mainstream jobs and/or pursue higher education.
They provide job skills by employing the youth in two successful businesses: Pedal Revolution (bicycle sales and repair shop) and Ashbury Images (t-shirt printing and silkscreening). If you're in the area, send some business their way!
Check out this really cool video that they made:
