Many students excel in science, technology, engineering, or math but don't know what career field they can pursue. JA introduces many young people to professions and career paths that they may not have been aware of, such as those in STEM, by bringing volunteer role models from the community into the classroom to share their experiences with students. Contact us today to learn how you can help young people pursue their dreams.

Its mid-July and HOT, yet these students at Northeast High School in Philly are in class organized by Junior Achievement USA to discover more about the entrepreneurial journey. Thanks to Annie Blankemeyer for the invitation to speak to the class.
