We are excited to share the great work Junior Achievement of Chicago is doing in our schools and communities. For 77 years, Junior Achievement has been the leading non-profit organization that brings entrepreneurship lessons to life in inner city and suburban classrooms across Chicagoland.
Sandy L. Daffé President, Junior Achievement of Chicago
As you once benefited from a mentor, JA harnesses the power of over 14,000 volunteers to deliver our curriculum. Incorporating their own education and career background into the lessons, JA volunteers bring the real world to life and open students’ eyes to their potential success. This year, JA reached 572,167 students in 12 area counties. JA brings the equality of opportunity and the spirit of entrepreneurship to students of all backgrounds — 67% of our students come from low-tomoderate income homes. From Mundelein to Mokena, Elburn to the Englewood neighborhood, and Glen Ellyn to Gary, Indiana, we are working to deepen our impact and show our students the possibilities for their future. As a recent JA alumnus, Nadia Estrada, shared with us, “Being a first-generation student and residing on the South Side of Chicago, I initially did not have a clear vision for my future
Thomas E. Richards Chairman and CEO, CDW Corporation Chairman, Junior Achievement of Chicago
and wasn’t always given the necessary tools needed to achieve this vision. After having been in JA, I gained the knowledge and assistance needed to create and pursue my vision. I truly believe that without JA, attending college would have only been a dream instead of reality for me. I am forever grateful to JA.” With a $7.5 million operating budget, we are entirely funded by businesses, foundations and individuals — we do not receive government or United Way funding. Our generous donors allow us to bring JA’s life-changing programming to students like Nadia.
Our programs are at a record-level demand with one in two Chicago Public Schools students receiving JA annually. As you will see throughout this annual report, that demand is supported by our evaluation results. We would like to extend our thanks to all of our supporters that volunteered, invited JA into your school, or donated to grow our programming. Your support is helping to build the next great generation of Chicago’s workforce.

75TH ANNIVERSARY UPDATE ON DONOR INVESTMENTS $7.5 N MILLIO
In 2015, we raised an unprecedented $7.5 million towards our special 75th Anniversary Campaign. The proceeds help fund JA’s growing resource of non-traditional volunteers, such as college students, high school students, veterans, retirees, parent groups, and volunteers from the community and other organizations. Through the leadership of the 75th Anniversary Campaign Co-Chairs Susan Crown, W. James Farrell, and John D. Nichols, our successful endowment campaign will fund these resources in perpetuity. We are excited to report that these volunteer resources continue to grow and allow JA to expand our programming to new schools and organizations, deepen our impact for our educational partners, and supply summer school programming to the Chicago Public Schools. We thank all of the donors that made our 75th Anniversary Campaign a great success. Your contribution has and will continue to bring JA programming to thousands of students across the Chicago area.
STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 On the heels of our 75th Anniversary in 2015, our board approved a five-year strategic plan in the spring of 2016. This plan was designed to lead us to our 80th Anniversary, approaching in 2020. Over the past year, we have made great strides in the key areas of program impact and fundraising. With the help of DePaul University, we are currently evaluating our fastest growing program, JA Reverse Job Shadow. This program, pioneered by JA of Chicago, is an innovation to the JA Job Shadow program. By bringing business professionals to the schools with this program, we are making career education more accessible to our students. The strategic plan also focuses on diversifying our funding streams. Oliver Wyman provided research and recommendations on Chicago-area companies that are not currently involved with JA. We would like to thank our board member Jim Fields of Oliver Wyman for spearheading this initiative. Additionally, Fifth Third Bank and our Board Member Bob Sullivan hosted our first of several CRA (Community Reinvestment Act) breakfasts. These events brought together managers from dozens of Chicago-area banks to learn how collaborating with JA can help them reach their CRA goals. The event has been replicated in our local divisions and has been successful in creating strong partnerships between JA and area financial institutions.

COLONEL HENRY CROWN SCHOLARSHIPS MAKE A DIFFERENCE Each year, JA gives thousands of dollars in scholarships and awards to exceptional students who have participated in JA programs. This year, Junior Achievement high school seniors received nearly $200,000 in scholarships thanks to the many friends in the business, professional and educational communities. With their support & belief in higher education, our students are provided with a terrific opportunity at future success. The top award, the Colonel Henry Crown Scholarship, provides four students with $40,000 over the course of four years at an accredited college, and includes a paid summer internship at a Henry Crown affiliated company.

Junior Achievement’s unique delivery system provides the training, materials, and support necessary to bolster the chances for student success. The impact is measurable, too. Students who participate in Junior Achievement programs demonstrate a significant understanding of economics and business concepts. JA’s elementary school programs are the foundation of our K-12 curricula. Six sequential themes, each with five hands-on activities, as well as an after-school experience, work to change students’ lives by helping them understand business and economics.
PROGRAMS THAT BUILD UPON EACH OTHER Sequential activities build on lessons from each preceding grade and prepare students for secondary and lifelong learning.
Fifth Grade: JA Our Nation® provides information about the need for employees who can meet the demands of the 21st century job market. Fourth Grade: JA Our Region® introduces students to entrepreneurship and how entrepreneurs use resources to produce goods and services in a region.

Partners
A Whole School Partnership is unique because companies can adopt an entire school in the neighborhood where they do business. Every student at a chosen school benefits from JA’s programs, while company employees have the opportunity to develop a special bond with the community they serve. JA of Chicago piloted the Whole School Program in 1993, starting with just 16 schools, and other JA areas have adopted the program. Since its inception, the program has grown dramatically. This year, 625 Whole Schools partnered with JA in our Whole School Program. The program allows schools to have JA programs year after year, benefiting the students with the sequential programming. The Whole School Partners listed in the following pages made significant financial and volunteer contributions during the 2016-2017 school year, enabling JA to provide an entire school of students with the tools they need to build their dreams.

35 Annual Chicago Business Hall of Fame th
Wednesday, November 15, 2017
at the Chicago History Museum
The Junior Achievement Business Hall of Fame signature event honors the incredible life stories of business leaders who have contributed to the Chicago community and serve as exceptional role models for today’s youth. The Junior Achievement Board of Directors established the Chicago Business Hall of Fame in 1983 to honor the champions of free enterprise and to benefit the work of Junior Achievement. The Executive Committee of Junior Achievement of Chicago’s Board of Directors reviews all nominees. A Blue Ribbon Panel consisting of former Laureates makes the final selections.
BRENDA C. BARNES (POSTHUMOUS) | Former Chairman & CEO | Sara Lee Corporation Barnes was a two-time corporate chief executive who broke barriers as a female leader. She rose through the ranks to become CEO of Pepsi, a job she famously left to spend more time with her family. As a result, Barnes became a key figure in the “Can women have it all?” debate and a hero to working moms. She rejoined the workforce seven years later to become Chairman and CEO of Sara Lee. She tragically passed away in January of 2017.
FRANK M. CLARK | Former Chairman & CEO | ComEd Clark was the first African-American Chairman and CEO of Commonwealth Edison (ComEd) and worked for the company for 46 years. He was born and raised in Chicago, and is most well known for his passion and tireless commitment to improving the lives of its citizens. His decades of civic and philanthropic leadership is extensive, including his current appointment as the President of the Chicago Board of Education by Mayor Rahm Emanuel. He has been ranked among the 50 Most Powerful Black Executives in America by Fortune magazine in 2002, and was one of seven recipients of this year’s Order of Lincoln Award, the state’s highest honor for professional achievement and public service.
RAYMOND F. McCASKEY | Retired President and CEO | Health Care Service Corporation (BlueCross BlueShield) McCaskey devoted over 32 years of service at BlueCross BlueShield of Illinois (Health Care Service Corporation). As CEO he guided the company’s transition from a midsize, one state organization to the largest customer owned health insurer in the nation. BlueCross BlueShield became a leader in corporate civic responsibility and workplace diversity. After retirement, Ray continues to serve the community through participation on seven civic and charitable boards. Ray and his wife, Judy, also established a college scholarship program for inner city Chicago students.
DR. JOANNE C. SMITH | President & CEO | Shirley Ryan AbilityLab Smith is the driving force behind the transformation of care delivery in the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation. As the President and Chief Executive Officer of the number No. 1 ranked Shirley Ryan AbilityLab (formerly the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago), she is the visionary behind the first-ever “translational” research hospital in which clinicians, scientists, innovators and technologists work together in the same space, surrounding patients, discovering new approaches and applying (or “translating”) research real time. An asset to the world, the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab advances healthcare for the benefit of faster recoveries, and even cures, disseminating discoveries to set new standards of care for all patients.
Divisional BoardS Events Engage Local Donors Our Divisional Boards of Directors act as advisory committees to deepen JA’s impact in their geographic area through securing local volunteers, engaging educators, and fundraising. We would like to thank the local businesspeople, educators, and community leaders who serve on these boards for their dedication and passion for JA’s work in their community. The chairs of these boards serve on JA’s Area Board of Directors and are notated beginning on page 26. Central Board Wine Event: This longstanding fundraiser features entertainment, an auction, and a wine tasting, against the scenic backdrop of the Loop from the top of a Chicago skyscraper. DuPage County Board Fundraiser: DuPage County educators, volunteers, business leaders, and board members come together each year to celebrate the county’s successful JA program outreach, network, bid on great auction items, and hear about the JA experiences of student speakers. Northern Board Trivia Night: This fun evening challenges our guests to several rounds of trivia on various topics. Hosted at Baxter International Inc., guests enjoy competitive play and an auction to raise funds for the northern division. Northwest Indiana Prom Night Gala: This inaugural event took guests back to their high school days with dinner, dancing, and honoring NWI Champions: the companies, school districts and colleges that make JA programming possible in Northwest Indiana. Western Board Top Golf Event: This fundraiser brings together JA supporters for three hours of play, a dinner buffet, and networking. Guests hear from JA students about their classroom experiences while also participating in live and silent auctions.
Wells fargo’s JA investment

Wells Fargo & Company gave a $100,000 donation to Junior Achievement of Chicago that helped prepare 4,600 local students for future employment. The bank’s contribution, more than double its 2016 gift, supported 200 JA financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship programs in Chicago schools. “Wells Fargo is a proud, longtime supporter of Junior Achievement’s efforts in Chicago and nationwide to help make students more employable in the future,” said Patrice DeCorrevont, executive vice president and division manager for Wells Fargo Government and Institutional Banking, based in Chicago.
