Junior Achievement Alumni Needed to Shape Today’s Youth
January is JA Alumni Month and during the month, Junior Achievement of Greater Washington is getting the word out to its alumni in the Greater Washington area that the youth education non-profit seeks to reengage with its former students. Junior Achievement’s alumni participated in JA programs during their elementary, middle school, or high school years. Many JA Alumni participated in JA Company Program®, an entrepreneurship experience for high schoolers in which students start-up and run their own business.
