Small businesses drive our economy. They create new jobs, bring valuable products and services to market and provide charitable and innovative contributions to our community. Starting and running a business is equal parts exhilarating and challenging. Although motivated by various reasons, these brave entrepreneurs have one thing that is essential for their company’s long-term growth and success – financial literacy.    

Junior Achievement has been teaching financial literacy and entrepreneurship to students from elementary school through high school since 1919. Their programs have a direct impact on the community by empowering students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in life and in business.

Did you know that 92% of students who participate in JA programs indicate that a JA volunteer helped them realize the importance of staying in school?

Thank you for your consideration to support Junior Achievement. Your donation will have a direct impact on future generations in our community, inspiring small business owners and furthering the education and success of our youth.
