JA's commitment to teaching students K-12 about financial literacy, workforce readiness, and entreprenuership has provided an avenue for myself and so many others in the University of Alabama community the opportunity to give back to an area that gives so much to each of us. I am excited to further my involvement as we seek to raise funds to support JA operations in the area for the next year!
Some fun facts about JA of Tuscaloosa County's Impact in 2016-2017:

This year, JA will increase its programming to include 530 classrooms, a feat that would be impossible without support from donors like you.
