Junior Achievement of the Eastern Shore serves six counties and 13,700 students on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. They empower students to own their economic success by teaching programs on financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship. Their programs teach anything from the difference between a penny and a nickel (Kindergarten), how to write a check and keep a registry (3rd) to how to fill out a job application and interview (High School)! Their mission is to inspire youth to better prepare themselves for the workplace and life by providing high quality economic and financial literacy programs along with exposure to and coaching from members of the community and area businesses.

I've been volunteering with Junior Achievement for several years now.  I have been able to teach in the classroom as well as make virtual teaching recordings.  At a young age students are taught practical knowledge about money and how it suppports themselves, their family and the community.  

Helping the children of our community learn the skills they need to be successful is so very important.  Please join me in raising funds to support JA and their programs.
