Experience the thrill of the trading floor at Junior Achievement’s VIRTUAL JA Stock Market Challenge on October 19th!

The JA Stock Market Challenge is a unique and dynamic event that has professionals from generous companies all over Arizona coming together for a night of fun and friendly competition, all while supporting important education for Arizona students. Increase your company’s visibility and network with other top valley companies as you share in the excitement of this one of a kind evening.

Proceeds from the JA^® Stock Market Challenge make it possible for more than 400 high school students to participate in the JA Student Stock Market Challenge.

Don’t miss this exclusive event where teams are issued $500,000 to buy mock stock in 30 fictitious companies. Once the opening bell is rung, the market opens & every 45 seconds is a new trading day!

Due to the volatile market, and the game’s frantic pace, teams are challenged as they compete for the largest portfolio by the end of trading. Depending on your team’s level of involvement, get better positions on the floor, tips about companies performance and opportunities to see your team standings.

Junior Achievement is now a Qualifying Charitable Organization,which means any donation you make to us could qualify for a dollar-for-dollar charitable tax credit. This tax credit is money you as a taxpayer can subtract from taxes owed to the government. Depending on your tax situation, you could claim up to a $400 tax credit if you are filing as “single,” “head of household,” or “married filing separate” or up to $800 if you are “married filing joint”. Essentially, instead of paying those taxes to the government, you are making a donation to Junior Achievement to help more low-income students receive our valuable education. And, by making that donation, you will either owe less taxes or receive a bigger refund, depending on your tax situation.
