Do you want to make a meaningful impact in the future of Hayes students?

Junior Achievement of Oklahoma is an educational nonprofit bringing financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship programs into classrooms from kindergarten through high school. We give young people the knowledge and skills they need to own their economic success, plan for their future, and make smart academic and economic choices.

Our corporate and community volunteers deliver relevant, hands-on experiences that give students skills in financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship. Junior Achievement’s programs include grade-specific lesson themes that teach students the basic concepts of business and economics and how education is relevant to the workplace. They also show students the value of an education, bridge the gap of what they are learning in the classroom with the real world, and equip them with the skills and tools they need to be more successful in school and their future careers.

This is a perfect opportunity to serve as role models for our youth and help inspire them to reach their goals. All materials and training are provided to volunteers free of charge. Help JA of Oklahoma impact the economic futures of the students at Hayes Elementary!
