Junior Achievement uses hands-on experiences to help young people understand the economics of life. In partnership with business and educators, Junior Achievement brings the real world to students, opening their minds to their potential.

Volunteers from local businesses and the community visit area middle school and high school classrooms to share their experiences with students. The volunteers serve as role models and use a nationally-designed curriculum to help students develop life skills and gain an understanding of business and economics.

Volunteer Opportunities

 
Classroom Volunteers : Junior Achievement of Central Ontario volunteers are making positive contributions to the lives of students -- tomorrow's leaders and at this time there simply isn't enough of them.

With a waiting list of approximately 13,000 students the demand is greater than the supply of volunteers, which means that some students will miss out on the JA advantage. That means they'll be missing out on the opportunity to acquire skills that will support them long into their futures.

What better time than now?
