Description

A want versus a need. How to balance a checkbook. Don't you wish that someone had taught you those things as you were growing up? Now there is someone. YOU. All we need is your enthusiasm, life experience, and a willingness to teach children about how you took chances and shot for the stars. Junior Achievement provides the training, curriculum, and a classroom ready to meet you. At Junior Achievement, we believe that communities are built when people volunteer. That is why our volunteers are such an integral part of everything we do; without them, we would not exist. When you volunteer for Junior Achievement, you're not just a volunteer; you are a valued and trusted partner in the future of our community.
