National Volunteer Week 2022
Our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do at JA. With the help of our dedicated network of volunteers, we provide engaging, educational, and inspiring programs to students that help them prepare for their life ahead.
Why Volunteer with JA?
Our youth are the leaders of tomorrow, and as a volunteer, you will be able to make a direct impact on their development and help empower them for the future. Each and every day, JA aims to inspire and prepare youth to succeed by providing them opportunities to learn and grow within the areas of financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and work readiness. By preparing them today, we are helping to equip them with the confidence and skills they need to succeed in the ever-changing world.
As a volunteer, you will not only help the next generation, but assist in your own professional development as well. Knowing you are making a difference will bring you joy, professional development, and personal fulfillment. One of the benefits you may gain from volunteering is the professional experience you gain and the ability to practice new skills. While volunteering, you may find yourself improving existing strengths, such as communication and interpersonal skills. This experience will strengthen your ability to succeed within a workplace.
There is no better way to give back to your community than to involve yourself in it. Connect with youth in your community and venture further to make even more connections with professionals in the field.
JA offers many options for volunteering, whether you ‘re only looking for a day commitment or a long-term position, there is a wide-range of programs to involve yourself in that will fit your needs. Should you need a more flexible option, but still want to volunteer, JA offers virtual volunteer opportunities.
