Description

Junior Achievement of Greater St. Louis (JASTL) has provided committed educational programs for students since 1943 and impacted over 160,000 students last school year.  JASTL has not slowed down and continues to teach financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and work readiness education in the classroom and virtually.

 

To provide JA programs to area students there are two major needs: volunteers and financial support.  Each year an annual fundraising event has been facilitated bringing dozens of businesses to bowl and raise money for JA programs, which is called the Play4JA Bowl-a-Thon.  At each event, prizes are given to help further the fundraising goal.  We are asking your company for help with reaching the goal of $350,000 by donating an item of your choice.  This could include a gift card and/or raffle basket items.

 

Thank you for taking the time to learn about Junior Achievement’s 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and how your business can further education in the lives of many students for years to come!  If you have any questions, please contact Cheryl Sheldon at 636.728.0707 ext. 229 or csheldon@jastl.org.  Thank you for your consideration.
