Host Hotels & Resorts has recently joined the growing list of Storefront Partners that will play host to a Storefront at Junior Achievement of Greater Washington’s forthcoming JA Finance Park Montgomery County, set to open in 2018.
Work-life balance is, perhaps, one of the most important lessons we can teach our region's young people. As the JA Finance Park Entertainment Storefront partner, Host Hotels & Resorts will challenge students to think carefully about their choices so that they can afford to have the unforgettable experiences you can only get outside the office.
“Host is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen by strengthening our local communities through engagement with organizations like Junior Achievement,” said Joanne Hamilton, Executive Vice President, Human Resources, Host Hotels and Resorts.
“As a financial institution and a member of the hospitality industry, we recognize the crucial role that financial literacy plays in the education of our youth and are proud to be the Entertainment storefront sponsor at JA Finance Park Montgomery County,” said Hamilton.
JA Finance Park Montgomery County partners will make this innovative experience possible for 12,000 young people a year.
