Today feels uncertain, but tomorrow represents hope and promise.
COVID-19 has quickly and profoundly changed our daily lives. Across the country, schools have closed and many will be switching to online-only learning for the duration of the spring semester in support of social distancing. As unsettling as the past few weeks have been to us as adults, consider the impact this is having on millions of young people who will be finishing school at home.
To support our young people, Junior Achievement is offering online resources for free to teachers and parents at www.JA.org/Tomorrows. We are doing this so that our children can spend more timing planning for and dreaming about tomorrow, and less time worrying about today. We are working hard to adapt more programs for online and home usage as we all move through these challenging times.We are committed to doing this until we can all be certain again.
Here are a few simple things you can do to support this effort.
Share
Please share the www.JA.org/Tomorrows link with any teachers or parents you may know. Also, please share the link and video via social media with your friends and connections, as well. The more the word gets out about these resources, the better JA will be able to support those who can use them the most.
Give
Consider giving a financial gift to Junior Achievement, it is critically important now, as JA is committed to continuing to serve the youth in their communities in new and creative ways. Preparing today’s youth is a critical mission and JA is acting nimbly in order to continue serving the ever-changing needs of students.
