Description

Founded in 1993 with a single Ben & Jerry's shop in San Francisco, Juma Venture's initial business was designed to give homeless youth the training and job experience they needed to transition from living on the streets to enjoying a stable adulthood. Since then, Juma has become a nationally recognized youth development organization focused on employment, financial capability, and career-supportive services.

As one of the country's largest youth-run social enterprises, Juma has served over 10,000 low-income youth who have generated $42 million in enterprise revenue, earned $14 million in wages, and saved over $6.2 million. We operate in Seattle, Sacramento, San Jose, and the San Francisco Bay Area where we have been in business for over 30 years.

Each year, Juma hosts Paths to Possibilities, an evening raising funds for the organization. This year, our event will take place on Saturday, September 7th at the Gotham Club at San Francisco's Oracle Park. This inspirational night combines fun, entertainment, and philanthropy — all to benefit Juma youth. Your product/service would be a fantastic addition to our auction lineup!
