Thank you for your support of the 2020 Aon & Junior Achievement of Chicago Fundraiser!
Junior Achievement of Chicago is proud to have Aon as a wonderful partner and sponsor! Aon began its participation in the JA Bowl-A-Thon in 1993 and, over the years has contributed to its success greatly! Just last year, Aon’s event raised $66,000 for Junior Achievement! Although we wish Aon could participate in the Bowl-A-Thon this year, to maintain the health and safety of all they have postponed the May 2020 event after careful consideration. This year Aon set a strong goal to raise $75,000 for Junior Achievement’s financial education programs and during this time, we truly thank all those who are still able to support.
The demand for Junior Achievement programs by educators has grown dramatically in recent years. The need for financial literacy and work readiness programs like JA are at an all-time high for our local students. We need your help to continue the great work!
During the COVID-19 crisis Junior Achievement of Chicago is providing digital programming for parents and teachers to deliver in home and to incorporate at the return of traditional classroom learning. JA of Chicago remains steadfast in our efforts to sustain operations and prepare to once again, bring comprehensive economic education to all students in the Chicagoland area.
There is a tremendous need for funding to support these programs, so any donations/ fundraising recruited for this fundraiser would have an immediate, positive impact on bringing financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship to students.
Today feels uncertain, but tomorrow is more important than ever. Junior Achievement of Chicago ensures young people are prepared for the ever-changing future. Junior Achievement of Chicago has maintained a low cost of $12 per student, so for only $100 you could sponsor 8 JA students, $500 sponsors an entire class, and $5,000 sponsors a whole school!
JA aims to help students spend more time planning for and dreaming about tomorrow, and less time worrying about today.
Thank you again for your donation and support of JA!
