Why do we need volunteers?
Junior Achievement is fundamentally a volunteer organization where dedicated individuals give their time in the classroom to educate and inspire young people about financial literacy, workforce readiness, and entrepreneurship. It follows that volunteers are the hallmark of the organization. Through their involvement, JA is able to bring a new and broader meaning to the lessons student are taught in school, No other non-profit organization has the “in the classroom reach”.
