EBGH Founder and Managing Director

In my 20 years here at Berkeley Fire Department, I have seen far too many disturbing events involving Cal students, knew something needed to be done, and EBGH was born. I felt it was our duty to reach out to students and give them better tools to survive their college years.

I believe this method of informing students of safe party practices is making a difference both for the students and for Cal as an important place to learn, and will continue for them after they have left Cal. Ultimately I hope it will save lives and reduce the number of students who become patients or victims.

EBGH Supporters From the Beginning

Chris and Scott have been with EBGH from the beginning.  They were the original crew that would work with EBGH as they tried to tackle the issue of how to reach students before things became a problem.  Together, they began presenting to the campus fraternities and sororities, helping the program gain steam.
