📈 We're looking for classroom volunteers and community partners to help bring the JA Stock Market Challenge to more students this December!

Following classroom lessons in personal finance and investing, students put their knowledge to the test in a fast-paced, live trading simulation. They analyze information, make investment decisions, and adapt to changing market conditions while experiencing the excitement of a live trading floor.

We're proud to bring this signature JA experience back to students across Greater Cleveland and grateful to RSM, Charles Schwab, and The Veale Foundation for their early partnership.

Your experience can change a student's future.

At JA Finance Park, students take on real-world financial and career decisions in an immersive simulation. As a volunteer, you'll help guide them through the experience, answer questions, and encourage them as they build confidence for the future.

No financial experience is required, and we'll provide all the training you need.

Whether you come on your own, bring a coworker, or organize a team outing, your time can have a lasting impact on the next generation.

We're currently looking for 11 volunteers for each of the following dates:

📅 November 10: https://lnkd.in/eGyMUd9m
📅 November 12: https://lnkd.in/eyTqPiS4

We hope you'll join us!

We were excited to host counselors from the Bedford City School District at our Experiential Learning Center this morning!

Together, we explored JA programs, discussed ways to support classroom learning, and even stepped into the Finance Park simulation to experience the impact in real time.

It was a great opportunity to connect and explore how we can work together to help students build the confidence and skills they need for what's next. Thank you for the important role you play in shaping their futures!

Yesterday, our Experiential Learning Center served as the backdrop for something special.

We were pleased to host our friends at Consulting LLC as they filmed testimonials for the 2026 100+ Latinos® Ohio Must Know cohort, an initiative dedicated to increasing visibility, expanding opportunities, and celebrating the contributions of Latino professionals across Ohio.

Stay tuned to hear their stories. These are leaders you'll want to know.

During Hispanic Heritage Month, we're grateful for the opportunity to celebrate and support efforts that spotlight Latino leadership across our state. Thank you to Marcia Moreno for her steadfast dedication to this vision, and to our teammate Carlos Laboy for helping make this opportunity possible and for always finding ways to connect and uplift others.

Congratulations to this year's cohort!

Financial confidence isn't built through worksheets. It's built through real-world application. At JA Finance Park, students put classroom learning into practice by making financial decisions they'll face in the future.

The impact is clear:

95% see more clearly how education connects to their future.

95% are more motivated to pursue their goals.

94% believe they can succeed in the workplace.

When students see how today's decisions shape tomorrow's opportunities, they build more than financial knowledge. They build the confidence and capability to pursue opportunity-filled futures.

Help students see what's possible.

We're partnering with Warrensville Heights Middle School on November 13 and looking for employers and professionals to share their career journeys with students in grades 6-8. A single conversation can help a young person connect today's learning to tomorrow's opportunities.

Moments like these are a reminder that while people may not remember every lesson, program, or conversation, they do remember the impact others have on their lives.

We were honored to be invited to Incarnate Word Academy this morning for a special gathering centered on community, gratitude, and the difference people make in the lives of others.

The icing on the cake? A handmade crocheted blanket, lovingly created by a 4th grader on her own entrepreneurial journey. We are grateful to do this work alongside you as we help fuel hope-filled futures. 💙

"What I learned is you get out of the program what you put in. Mentoring leaves a lasting impression on students and mentors."

— Melanie Sumbry, She Leads Mentor

Sometimes, all it takes for a young person to start believing "I can get there too" is seeing someone who has walked the path before them.

Through She Leads, mentors help young women build confidence, explore possibilities, and see their own potential in a new way. The impact lasts far beyond the program, for students and mentors alike.

We're looking for women who are ready to inspire, encourage, and help the next generation of leaders take the next step toward their future.

Could that be you?
