This is the year we make history—Junior Achievement of Greater New Orleans will reach our 1 millionth student! But this milestone is more than a celebration of our past—it’s a call to action for our future. For 70 years, JA has empowered young people to achieve financial security, career success, and entrepreneurial dreams. Now, we stand at a pivotal moment. To ensure the next million students have the opportunities they deserve, we must invest in JA’s future—building a sustainable foundation that will transform lives for generations to come. I'm calling on all JA alumni and parents of JA students to be a part of giving young people a foundation to build their own success.
