There is a real need for economic and personal finances education, especially for the students and youth of our region. Junior Achievement fills this void by providing quality financial programs (K-12) to the southwest Ohio region and surrounding areas (Richmond, IN - Dayton, OH - Northern Kentucky).
We have an opportunity to help local students by providing the tools necessary to go farther in life and succeed. And it is a win-win: as these kiddos grow up, they will become the next generation of our workforce and Cincinnati regional business community.
$25 is all it takes to sponsor one child and help them succeed in today's global economy.
This program is guided by their core values:
Belief in the boundless potential of young people
Commitment to the principles of market-based economics and entrepreneurship
Passion for what we do and honesty, integrity, and excellence in how we do it
Respect for the talents, creativity, perspectives, and backgrounds of all individuals
Belief in the power of partnership and collaboration
Conviction in the educational and motivational impact of relevant, hands-on learning
Like I mentioned above, $25 will provide the resources for one child to have exposure to economic principles and concepts, entrepreneurship guidance, and personal finance education.
