On December 1 2009, the Junior Achievement of Rock River Valley in IL will close because of the challenging economic conditions. One volunteer from the area shared his thoughts about the importance of JA on his blog…
“And that’s the importance of Junior Achievement. It’s not to turn them into instant entrepreneurs or to save them, but to give them insight into our world of business. Think back to your youth and consider who and what crossed your path that peaked your interest in business. Heck, I have more mentors than can be remembered and each added something to the mix that’s become my business career and I’ll bet you have the same.”
Well said, Dwain…
Our goal in Denver, Northern Colorado, and Wyoming is to reach 95,000 students this year, but we can’t do it without our amazing volunteers. Please call 303-534-5252 for information on available classes. We look forward to working with you!
