Economic empowerment through education; get involved in Junior Achievement (JA) today and make a profound difference in the youth of our community! JA of Northern Colorado has immediate openings for volunteers in Fort Collins.

For May of 2022, we need volunteers in Bennett Elementary 4th grade classrooms (5 hour commitment). Volunteers will lead JA Our Region. This program introduces students to entrepreneurship and how entrepreneurs use resources to produce goods and services in a region. Students operate a hypothetical hot dog stand to understand the fundamental tasks performed by a business owner and to track the revenue and expenses of a business.

JA needs volunteers in May 2022 for Bauder Elementary Kindergarten classrooms (4 hour commitment).Volunteers lead JA Ourselves. This program uses storybook characters in read-aloud and hands-on activities to introduce the role people play in an economy. Through engaging, volunteer-led activities, young students learn about individual choices, money, the importance of saving and giving, and the value of work.
