Junior Achievement is a non-profit organization that provides economic education programs for K-12 students. A key component is the volunteer portion of JA programs. All classes are conducted by a volunteer coming from either the business community, parent, or college student. 

Make a difference! Junior Achievement volunteers "teach" in the classroom for eight lessons at middle schools and five lessons at elementary schools following a one-time training where all materials needed are provided. The commitment is once a week for less than an hour and the rewards are irreplaceable! JA recruits volunteers from corportations, business owners, college students, parents, grandparents, retirees and many other sources.

We have classroom openings in GRPS and Christian schools including many outlying areas such as Hopkins, Saranac, Belding, Sparta, Hudsonville and more. Over 500 classrooms need a volunteer for the upcoming semester running anywhere from mid-January to mid-May. YOU ARE QUALIFIED! We will provide a one-time training for you along with providing all the materials needed to "teach" the class. Please consider being a positive role model to students in your community.
