Through a live or recorded presentation, you are virtually linked to a classroom of students. Volunteers can lead an entire JA program over several weeks or "beam in" for one class session to share your "story" or be a "subject matter expert" on a certain topic. Junior Achievement prepares you with a training session by a JA staff leader to answer questions and make sure you’re ready, a guide to becoming an awesome volunteer, a connection to educators who need your help and materials to share with students or prompts to share your story.
The mission of Junior Achievement (JA) is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed in a global economy. JA’s proven real-life relevant programs help students make the connection between what they learn in school and how it can apply to their lives. Junior Achievement programs and volunteer role models provide students with a critically important curriculum centered around three major pillars: workforce readiness, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship providing positive reinforcement of career aspirations, an understanding of money management, and benefits of business ownership.
Get involved today! You will find the Junior Achievement volunteer experience fun and very rewarding!
