For over 100 years, Junior Achievement has placed volunteers from the business community into local classrooms to teach curriculum centered on financial literacy, workforce readiness and entrepreneurship. Never in recent history has our services been in such demand. Of the youth we serve, over 70% come from low to moderate income communities. At JA, we are striving to reignite their passion for breaking through the walls that are limiting their view of the future. With your help, we can reach even more youth!

Our events are an important source of funding for our K-12 programs, and provide us with an opportunity to showcase our valued partners and supporters. We are teeing off our 3rd annual PlayForeJA fundraiser and expect over 250 participants and corporate sponsors to come out with their co-workers and friends to compete for prizes and raise money for JA programs.

The time to "Tee up" is now! With 39% of our teens believing they are behind educationally; Junior Achievement support is crucial. We respectfully enlist your support in a donation of an item for our themed, "experience" basket that will be raffled off for our upcoming PlayForeJA event on October 26, 2023. 

One hundred percent of the proceeds will help us to meet the unprecedented demand for JA's economic empowerment programs.

Thank you for considering Junior Achievement this year!
