Like those sneakers? They're made in China with rubber from Brazil, cotton from India, color dye from Vietnam, and recycled plastic from Honduras. Such practical examples help students see how goods flow in the world economy and theeffect globalization has on their lives.
This hands-on JA program consists of six 45 minute visits to the same classroom. You and the teacher determine the schedule of your visits (starting mid November).
It's easy to become a JA classroom volunteer. Regardless of your background or experience, Junior Achievement's unique delivery system provides the training, materials and support you need to ensure a positive and fun experience.
