Junior Achievement Recognizes JA Young Professionals Board

In 2015, Junior Achievement of Lincoln (jalincoln.org/ja-young-professionals-board/) formed the JA Young Professionals Board of Directors. This happened primarily through volunteer outreach and special event participation. The Young Professionals Board of Junior Achievement of Lincoln is a group committed to advancing JA’s mission through promoting interest and generating support among Lincoln’s young professionals. The JA Young Professionals Board recruited nearly 60 classroom volunteers this year and assisted in the JA Bowl-A-Thon and the all-new JA Stock Market Challenge event in November.
