It's Challenging
Because It Matters
We don't volunteer because it's easy. We volunteer because it's meaningful.
Today's students are preparing for a future that is changing faster than ever, and they need role models who can help them connect education to opportunity. By volunteering with Junior Achievement, you can do exactly that.
By sharing your experiences and JA's proven learning experiences, you'll help students see the relevance of what they're learning, build confidence in their abilities, and discover future possibilities. You'll help them become confident, capable, and connected—and achieve academically today and economically tomorrow.
Will every student respond? Maybe not. But for the ones who do, your impact can be life-changing.
And you'll know you helped make it possible.

From Learning
To Opportunity

Other Ways To Volunteer
Whether you're sharing your career journey, supporting a hands-on learning experience, or guiding students through a JA ELC, your time can help build the confidence, skills, and mindset students need to succeed. Together, we can help students become confident, capable, and connected.
JA Job Shadow
Students come to you. You'll give them insight into your job and give them a tour of your company so they can have an opportunity to see how work gets done.
Traditional Classroom
You'll be paired with a teacher in a classroom to show students the connection between what they are learning and future success.
ELCs
Step into a simulated city and help students navigate real-life financial decisions. Your guidance helps bring learning to life, showing students how today's decisions can shape tomorrow's opportunities.
