JA Inspire Virtual is more than a career fair; it brings together the business community and local schools and is designed to help launch middle school and high school students into their future—high school, college, and careers beyond.
TOMORROWS ARE MORE
IMPORTANT THAN EVER
TODAY IS UNCERTAIN. TOMORROW REPRESENTS HOPES AND DREAMS.
With schools closing, Junior Achievement is providing free online resources to teachers and parents. We are doing this so our kids can spend more time planning for and dreaming about tomorrow, and less time worrying about today. We are committed to doing this until we can all be certain again.
Ways you can support this effort.
I am a teacher, parent or student looking for stand-alone activities, facilitator guides, or ancillary resources that support learning.
I want to support Junior Achievement's efforts to provide free online resources to teachers and parents with a gift to JA.
WHAT IS JUNIOR ACHIEVEMENT?
JA helps students realize that the education they are getting today will help them to have a bright future tomorrow.

Junior Achievement inspires and prepares young people to succeed in the global economy. JA’s Circle of Impact is reserved for companies or individuals who prefer to support Junior Achievement in the form of a donation vs. a sponsorship. They make it possible for Junior Achievement (JA) to meet the increased program demands received from our local school districts and allow us to provide young people with the real-world skills they want and need, like how to manage money, and how to prepare for college or a career.
Thanks to our Sponsor:
We are extremely thankful to the generosity of the T.L.L. Temple Foundation, who funds many of our high school initiatives, and to the E.L. Kurth Jr. Charitable Foundation, who funds many of our Elementary and Middle School initiatives.
