Giving Tuesday is just around the corner. Each year, JA launches a campaign to support their JA Day economic mentoring programs, benefiting 30,000 students in ten parishes. As we head into the season of giving, I hope you'll consider supporting JA during this time and help me reach my goal.

I am proud to support this worthy organization and help raise money for these efforts. As a JA volunteer, I see how impactful JA programs are for students.  JA teaches young kids financial literacy, work-readiness skills and entrepreneurship.  Through age-sequential JA mentoring programs, students learn critical life skills and are 100% ready for work, financially savvy and business minded.
