Mission: Junior Achievement of Arizona (JA) exists to prepare students to succeed in work and life.

Since 1957, JA has been teaching students, kindergarten through high school, how to: manage their money, be ready to enter the workforce, and to think like an entrepreneur. This critical education is delivered by nearly 9,000 volunteer mentors from the local and business community, helping students connect the dots between what they learn in the classroom to the real world.

Junior Achievement of Arizona is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 1994, and donations may or may not be tax-deductible.
