Junior Achievement serving White County

Junior Achievement serving White County Junior Achievement's mission is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed in a global economy. Click here to learn about each of our communities.

Junior Achievement is the world's largest non-profit educating youth on financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship. Hand in hand with caring adults who care about young people and their community, JA programs are reaching more than 1,000 White County students. With the support of educators who invite the programs into their classrooms, these students are experiencing the opportunities and realities of work as they prepare to own their future economic success.

Junior Achievement empowers young people to own their future economic success by enhancing the relevancy of education. At every grade level JA programs expose students to basic business concepts and the skills that enable them to understand real-life economics. With this knowledge, they build an understanding regarding economic choices and the resulting consequences of each decision. This prepares them for economically independent futures based on strong economic knowledge and solid personal financial management skills. Across 30 counties in northern Indiana and southwest Michigan, and into Van Wert, Ohio, more than 5,500 volunteers mentor 121,000 pre-kindergarten through high school youth. In partnership with educators, adult volunteers deliver professionally developed learning activities and share their experiences with students. They are igniting the spark in young people to experience and realize the opportunities and realities of work in the 21st century global marketplace.
