Welcome Message From Our Board President
Dear Friends and Supporters:
Welcome to the Elsie Allen High School Foundation! I am delighted you are here to learn more about our work in supporting the extraordinary junior and high school students of Southwest Santa Rosa.
The EAHS Foundation was established in 2013 by local community leaders to assist our talented students on their pathway to success. What began primarily as a higher education scholarship fund has now expanded to include implementation of career exploration pathways, health care certification and internships, a student-led foundation club, grants for student projects in carpentry, agriculture, and the visual and performing arts, and an after-school trades academy with OSHA certification and job placement opportunities. As a foundation, we are committed to educational equity and guiding our students on the pathway to college and career success. With the support of our generous community partners and donors, our mission is to empower and encourage the students of Southwest Santa Rosa as they dream, achieve, and succeed. To date, the foundation has awarded over $1 million in higher education scholarships and raised over $3.6 million since its inception.
As the only high school located in Southwest Santa Rosa, Elsie Allen is made up of a richly diverse student body. Our students speak over 20 languages on campus, and many are immigrant or first-generation Americans. Despite having the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students in Sonoma County, these remarkable students continue to pursue their goals with determination and resilience, proving that their circumstances do not define their potential for success.
I invite you to reach out to learn more about our mission and commitment to uplifting the students of Southwest Santa Rosa.
On behalf of the EAHS Foundation, welcome to the Lobo Family!
Emily DeMeo
Board President
