With much of this not otherwise in the school curriculum, Junior Achievement brings volunteers and program material into the classroom to benefit local area students.

I have served on the local advisory board for over ten years as I've seen the positive impact this program creates for students K-12.  In addition to my time on the board, I volunteer each year to teach personal finance to the seniors at South Medford High School.  My wife has volunteered in the elementary schools teaching the differences of a Want vs. a Need and the basics of how business works.  Both of our boys have benefitted from the various programs over their years in school, including the immersive Finance Park capstone experience.

I am supporting Junior Achievement's efforts to educate students about workforce readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy. Please join me at the event or help by making a donation below!
