BBB Wise Giving Alliance Comment

               

This charitable organization either has not responded to written BBB requests for information or has declined to be evaluated in relation to BBB Standards for Charity Accountability. Charity participation in BBB review is voluntary. However, without the requested information, it is not possible to determine whether this charity adheres to all of the BBB Standards for Charity Accountability. The BBB encourages charities to disclose accountability information beyond that typically included in financial statements and government filings, in order to demonstrate transparency and strengthen public trust in the charitable sector.


The BBB reports on charities and determines if they meet 20 voluntary standards on matters such as charity finances, appeals, and governance. The BBB does not evaluate the worthiness of the charitable program.

Programs

               

"JA provides 20 separate, sequential programs to students in kindergarten through 12th grades. Our programs focus on seven key content areas: business, citizenship, economics, entrepreneurship, ethics and character, financial literacy and career development. In the elementary grades, students learn about needs vs. wants, different types of jobs and money & banking. Middle grades students study budgeting, job interviewing and decision-making. In high school, students try their hand at entrepreneurship, writing business plans and financial management. The Junior Achievement programs supplement standard social studies curricula and develop skills that are essential to success in the workplace and in life."
