JA's unique approach allows volunteers from the community to deliver our curriculum while sharing their experiences with students. Students put these lessons into action and learn the value of contributing to their communities. JA programs help prepare young people for the real world by showing them how to generate wealth and effectively manage it, how to create jobs which make their communities more robust, and how to apply entrepreneurial thinking to the workplace. JA Worldwide is the world's largest organization dedicated to educating students about workforce readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy through experiential, hands-on programs.
"JA is fortunate to have such dedicated individuals supporting our efforts, as every contribution allows us to help mentor one more child into realizing his/her true potential." "It was wonderful working with the staff and students at CSUDH," begins Carlito. In addition to the Toro bowlers, CSUDH was joined by the Doubletree Hotel Carson Civic Plaza, one of its corporate sponsors, after the hotel made its own significant contribution to the event, as well as Mariana Carlito, JA's Director of Special Events. In another stellar pairing between the two organizations, participants sought sponsorships for their bowling extravaganza, with the tax-deductible sponsorships being split evenly between JA and CSUDH's SAAC.
