JA needs your support!

At Junior Achievement, we teach students about money management, career choices, being good employees, starting a business, and the importance of education – in fun and engaging ways!  Local role models share these lessons and turn dreams into realities!

“As a student, I never really knew what my calling was.  My junior year…I was invited to participate in ‘the Stock Market Challenge’ that sparked an interest in me. It was absolutely incredible. That same year, Junior Achievement invited me to attend a day-long tour and seminar at a bank.  It was my third JA event with Mr. Rothhauser as my volunteer that I knew my calling and niche was in the banking industry. Fast forward two years later, I am now working at UBank alongside the same individual who inspired me to pursue a career in banking.”                                                                   -Sergio D, Hudson ISD, Class of 2020

JA provides opportunities just like this to over 4,000 students, across all 6 of our local school districts in Angelina County every year.  We know JA programs make a difference, but we can’t do it alone. 

Your donation would mean that we can reach more students and continue to provide Junior Achievement in classrooms, free of charge to schools and educators.  You can make a difference and build a brighter tomorrow.  Pledge your support to JA today!
