Be a Volunteer! Get Involved!

One of Junior Achievement's greatest assets is the dedication of its many volunteers; people from all over the country who volunteer in their local schools, making a difference, one class at a time.

Junior Achievement volunteers teach fun, interactive lessons about business to kids in kindergarten through 12th grade, helping students understand how important a complete education is to their future success.

Our volunteers embody the heart of Junior Achievement. Taking the message of opportunity and economic understanding to a classroom in your community, no matter what your profession, is JA in action.

JASD is always looking for individuals to help with general office and administrative work at our San Diego office to keep overhead costs low.

Our volunteers help in many ways:

  • In classrooms, grade K-12
  • In The McGrath Family JA BizTown™
  • In the office
  • At special events
