What an incredibly powerful and fun week of financial literacy and camaraderie for the middle and high school students from Webb Middle, Jubilee Academy, and Travis Early College High School. Thanks to our Educational and Business Partners, 491 students participated in JA Finance Park- a 32% increase from 22-23 with 75% projected growth during the 24-25 school year.
JA Finance Park is a testament to JA’s proven model to deliver the mission by providing not only our highly vetted curriculum but serving as the educational conduit for our business community and our schools.
For our volunteers from the business community this is the perfect mix of team building and philanthropy. Volunteers serve as mentors for the students, working together to serve our community’s young people. It is a highly impactful experience for both volunteers and students alike.
For our schools, this is a Texas Educational Knowledge Standards (TEKS) aligned, hands-on, and deeply meaningful experience with mentors where student learn the impact of their educational and career choices along with the tools to make sound financial decisions.
Together, we can deliver on the belief that Opportunity is for Everyone.
Thank you to Paul Gerling and Comerica Bank for their Title Partnership of JA Finance Park and helping the next generation to be economically empowered.
