Get Involved!

Don’t you wish someone had taught you how to balance a checkbook and create a personal budget while you were still in school? Or helped you explore career options, learn about how business works, and acquire life-long skills for success? Now you can help local students receive these opportunities, and help open their minds to their potential and prepare them for the future. All we need is your enthusiasm, life experience, and a willingness to teach children about the economics of life. Junior Achievement provides the training, curriculum, and a classroom ready to meet you.

Volunteer Time Commitment:
Your commitment could vary from a single school day to weekly visits. Typically, volunteers make five to ten visits lasting 30-60 minutes each. It all depends on the grade level and program you choose. You can choose your classroom based on a number of factors. We’re flexible!
