Erase the Wait 2025
YOU CAN ERASE THE WAIT FOR JA LEARNING EXPERIENCES
It’s back! We are excited to share that our Erase the Wait campaign kicks off today and we have an important goal: raising $70,000 in 7 weeks. There is a waitlist of students who are eager to take part in our programs before the school year ends, but we cannot reach them without your help.
Local students are bright, motivated and eager to learn.
They’ve asked to participate in JA learning experiences that will equip them with the skills they need to navigate life, work, and leadership.
You can make it happen.
We believe in their boundless potential and we know you do too
With your support, a student will walk into their first job interview prepared. They will launch a business idea with confidence. They will believe in themselves – because you believed in them first.
