Valued Friends and Investors Founded in 1919, our national Junior Achievement organization is proudly celebrating its 100th Anniversary this upcoming year and we are just as committed today to ensuring our students are ready for their futures as we were a century ago. You will see that legacy demonstrated across media channels as we launch a new celebratory campaign – 100 years, 100% ready. Thanks to our volunteers, donors, educators and alumni, we have successfully empowered students to manage their finances and compete in the workforce for the last 100 years and we cannot wait for the continued journey with you. Kicking off our 79th year locally, JA of Chicago is celebrating our own milestones. This
year, we reached a
record high 600,222 students in 28,936 classrooms! This incredible outreach was due to the commitment of nearly 14,000 volunteers making a true impact on students. In fact, 1 in 5 JA students go into the same career field as their volunteer and 1 in 3 JA students credit JA for influencing their career decision. Local educators also feel strongly about the positive difference JA is making in the lives of their students, with 95% agreeing that JA volunteers serve as role models for their students. Recently named “Organization of the Year” by the Institute of Financial Literacy, we are excited to deepen our impact in 2019 through our new JA Work and Career Readiness Pathway. This initiative will provide students with the skills and knowledge needed to advance in their future career path. The Pathway provides an avenue for students to develop

have otherwise considered. In a time when public funding for education is under pressure, JA’s role and value is increasing. Our programs are effective and engaging, but it is our volunteers and supporters that truly bring our programs to life. Our schools depend on Junior Achievement to prepare their students for the workforce and your ongoing support will enable us to continue to have a life changing impact on so many young lives.
