Why Junior Achievement needs you. . .

  

The vast majority (96%) of employees feel it is important for the American workforce to become more entrepreneurial in order to keep America competitive in the global market. (Gallup poll)

 

The future workforce is here – and is woefully ill-prepared for the demands of today’s and tomorrow’s workplace. (U.S. employer survey)

 

The financial preparedness of our nation's youth is essential to their well-being and of vital importance to our economic future. (Ben Bernanke)
