MISSION
​
Executive Service Corps of Houston’s mission is to strengthen nonprofits so they can achieve their charitable purpose.
We have partnered with over 3,800 nonprofits, offering no-cost to low-cost webinars, workshops, and consulting, expanding nonprofits’ capacity to achieve sustainability.
​
Our highly experienced and trained volunteers are passionate about sharing their expertise to help nonprofits build a successful organization so that they, in turn, can focus on the thing that matters most – their mission.
HISTORY
​
The Executive Service Corps of Houston was created in 1984 by Ken Jamieson, retired chairman and CEO of Exxon Corporation, to enable the local nonprofit community to tap into the abundant talent and experience of our area’s corporate executives.
Since 1984, ESCH has made a lasting and transformational impact on nonprofits, making Houston a better place to live for all.
