Junior Achievement volunteers come from diverse age groups, backgrounds and occupations. Business professionals, parents, retirees -- even college and high school students -- take time out of their busy schedules to teach Junior Achievement programs.

There are many different ways for both adults and young people to become a part of the Junior Achievement family.

The opportunities range from corporate sponsorship to volunteering in the classrooms or in special events. Junior Achievement programs provide immensely rewarding experiences for both adults and young people.

Contributing to the growth and future of the work force brings immeasurable benefits not only to the students and the volunteers but also to their whole communities.

Testimonials
Here are just a few of the great things people have to say about JA Miami! "

...(our volunteer) was phenomenal. Maya Angelou may have to change her poem (Phenomenal Woman) to include a poem for a male. He was truly dedicated, knowledgeable and dependable. He's a master of his craft and his knowledge of the business world was truly evident. Most people run away from the older students, but he came in and did everything he needed to do, even when he was pressed for time."
-- Cherryl Small, Coral Park Senior High (May 2007)

"I enjoyed the experience immensely and am certain the students we presented the program to were each influenced in some way by our efforts. I look forward to working with Junior Achievement again in the future."
-- Caroll Neita, Volunteer from State Farm Insurance (May 2007)
