JA Worldwide
Junior Achievement has been promoting the ideals of entrepreneurship, financial literacy and workplace readiness for almost a century. JA Worldwide reaches approximately 7.5 million students per year in 305,000 classrooms and after-school locations. JA programs are taught in inner cities, suburbs, and rural areas throughout the United States of America and in 100 other countries around the world.
Our mission is supported by over 245,000 classroom volunteers around the world, from all walks of life, including business people, college students, parents, and retirees. The hallmark of our organization has always been providing children with positive adult role-models, who illustrate ways to build self-confidence, develop skills and find avenues of success in the American economic system.
JA is one of a few global non-profit organizations to use independent, third-party evaluators to gauge the impact of its programs. Since 1993, independent evaluators have conducted studies on JA's effectiveness and proven the positive impact and added value of JA programs.
