Huge thank you to the Palm Beach Chamber of Commerce for inviting our President & CEO, Katie Thompson, and Vice President of Education, Erica Henn, onto the Your Palm Beach Guide podcast! 🎙️

In this episode, Katie and Erica share how Junior Achievement reaches over 77,000 students every year across the Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast. From financial literacy and career readiness to experiential programs like JA BizTown (where students run an entire working community of their own), we are empowering the next generation with real-world skills.

As Katie and Erica put it: "Building the next generation takes people who show up every day and refuse to let young people believe the life they want is out of reach."

Watch or listen to the full conversation to learn how we are shaping economic mobility and future success for local students!

He spent decades securing billions in state funding and running Palm Beach County behind the scenes. Now, Todd Bonlarron is taking center stage for one reason: to roast Joe Abruzzo.

We’re thrilled to announce Todd Bonlarron as our next roaster for Laugh Your Assets Off!

With over 30 years in public service and local government leadership, Todd holds all the receipts on Palm Beach County politics. Joe Abruzzo may think he’s prepared, but when a seasoned strategist with three decades of insider dirt takes the mic, all political protocol goes out the window.

Join us at the Paddock Restaurant on October 22nd to watch Todd take his best shots!

Every laugh supports a serious mission: empowering Palm Beach and Treasure Coast students with the financial literacy and career-readiness tools they need to succeed.

Date: Thursday, October 22, 2026
Time: 6:00 PM
Location: The Paddock Restaurant at Palm Beach Kennel Club (1111 N. Congress Ave, West Palm Beach, FL)

When students can see what’s possible, they can achieve it!

We were glad to welcome Florida State Representative Debra Tendrich (District 89) to Lake Worth Community High School for our recent JA High School Career Exploration Fair!

Representative Tendrich connected with students to share her background, from holding two jobs at age 14 to working through grit and determination to serve in public office today. Her conversation with students highlighted how personal responsibility, hard work, and staying connected to your community help build a successful career path. She also rallied the students around a big goal: taking their talents and launching successful futures right here in Palm Beach County!
