Volunteer!

Can you see yourself in the role of classroom consultant for Junior Achievement?       As a Junior Achievement volunteer consultant, YOU could be instrumental in preventing a future financial crisis such as the one our country is currently facing -- just by volunteering a couple of hours a week of your time to teach kids how our economic system works!

       Junior Achievement programs teach students basic business and economic concepts through proven lessons and hands-on activities in their classrooms. Programs vary by grade (K-12) and are age-appropriate and fun. Best of all, in addition to the proven curriculum provided by JA, students get the experience of a local business volunteer delivering the program!

       We provide all materials, training, and support. YOU provide the enthusiasm, experience, and a role model for our students.

       This year, we are expanding to provide programs in new classrooms AND new areas! To see what classes are being offered currently, please see our 2008/2009 Program Schedule.

Together, you and Junior Achievement reached 361 classrooms and 8,397 students during the 2007/2008 school year! Most of the additional classes, requested by teachers or school administrators, reflect an expansion of the middle or high school programs, in many cases reaching "at risk" youth and those about to enter the workforce.

 

Junior Achievement promotes Work Readiness, Entrepreneurship, and Financial Literacy.

Junior Achievement uses hands-on experiences to help young people understand the economics of life. In partnership with business and educators, JA brings the real world to students, opening their minds to their potential.
