JA Junior Achievement Finance Park Events (Spring 2024)

Save to Favorites

JA Finance Park provides middle & high school and college students with a hands-on simulation that lets students experience what adulthood might be like. The simulation issues each student a life scenario, giving them a career, salary, credit score, and family situation. Then, the students set their savings, budget for month, and then try to stay within that budget, paying all the bills while balancing needs versus wants. This is where we need volunteers like you! Each group of 4-7 students needs a volunteer to offer expertise and guidance about everyday life as an adult. No teaching experience needed! JA provides a one hour training on the day you volunteer which includes a short run-through of the simulation.
