The success of our community depends on how prepared today’s students are to succeed in work and life. We must empower the next generation to succeed by teaching them how to manage their money, be ready to enter the workplace and to think innovatively.

Junior Achievement of Arizona is doing just that. We are changing lives! Our programs are far-reaching (170,000+ primarily low-income students each year!) and have meaningful, measurable impact – not just for the students we serve, but their families, their future employers and the community overall. We are giving these students the tools and confidence to break poverty cycles and achieve new heights!

By empowering today’s students, we’re ensuring a robust and sustainable future for Arizona.

JA students are 54% more likely to have their bachelor's degree than the general population

Students who experienced JA earn 20% more than the general population

4-in-5 JA alumni say JA played an important role in their belief that they could achieve their goals
