Opportunities to Work TogetherJunior Achievement programVolunteer
to Serve as a Classroom Mentor:
Junior
Achievement (JA)
programs use volunteers from the local community to work with teachers,
presenting JA’s entrepreneurial,
business and economic education programs.
Business mentors spend about 1 hour a week for 8 – 12 weeks working
with students in a local school.
These mentors help students understand how to write a business plan and
create jobs through business start-ups.
Many large, well-known companies today once started out very small.
Bill Hewlett and David Packard started HP in their garage.
Microsoft, Apple, Ford Motor Company, Amazon.com started small. In the
process of fulfilling a real need in the market place, these companies grew and
created tens of thousands of jobs.
You’ll find this mentoring experience Rewarding
& Fun! Sponsor
a Local Junior Achievement (JA) Class:
The
cost varies around the world, but is generally around $25 per student.
Therefore, your Rotary Club could sponsor a full Junior
Achievement class for $750. For
a complete description of the 20 different K-12 JA educational programs visit www.jaintl.org/programs. Sponsor
a Student Travel Scholarship:
Many
Junior Achievement Member Nations
conduct International Student Conferences.
Often, local JA organizations
look for travel scholarships to send the best and brightest students to a Junior
Achievement International Student Conference. Sponsor
a JA GLOBE Class:
The
JA GLOBE program is a High
School/University level program in which students form a joint venture business
with students in another country. They
study international trade and actually import and export products to one
another. The program involves a
student exchange. Why not sponsor a
local GLOBE class and link with one of branches or partners in another country?
