International Council (IC):

Founded in 1929 in Jacksonville, Texas, ESA was established to empower individuals through education, service, and leadership. The organization’s early focus on learning and literature evolved to include philanthropy and community service, leading to partnerships with organizations like the USO, the Red Cross, and the March of Dimes.
In 1972, ESA adopted St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as its first international service project and remains the hospital’s largest third-party donor. In 1988, ESA expanded to college campuses, launching Collegiate ESA, which continues to develop young leaders through service and personal development.
Today, ESA is a thriving network of nearly 800 local and collegiate chapters and 10,000+ members, committed to building a better world through friendship, service, and leadership.
