Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program

From tacos to t-shirts

Stuffing tacos and burritos at Taco Bell is not exactly the best way to spend your spare time, but when you’re in high school there isn’t really a plethora of job opportunities available, especially for those under 18. I was thankful to be employed, but deep down inside I wanted more.

The Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program (HEMP) was founded in 1995 by Barnett Helzberg, Jr., former owner and President of Helzberg Diamonds. Inspired by his twenty-three year mentoring relationship with Ewing Kauffman, HEMP matches seasoned, successful entrepreneur mentors with less-experienced entrepreneur mentees.
