Junior Achievement of Central Ohio

Junior Achievement of Central Ohio For 75 years, JA has empowered students across Central & Southeast Ohio with the confidence, skills, and economic knowledge to shape their futures.

As part of JA’s global network, we’re building a legacy of opportunity. Junior Achievement of Central Ohio was founded in 1950 by the Columbus Downtown Rotary Club. Junior Achievement is a volunteer driven, non-profit organization. This year in Central Ohio, more than 2,000 business professionals, parents, retirees and college students will enter our schools to teach Junior Achievement programs to

more than 30,000 students in grades K-12. These volunteers use their personal experiences to make the Junior Achievement curricula practical and realistic.
