In short, a Game Changer is you. You're here because you believe in change. You see the needs of the youth in our community, and you want to see those needs met. We do too!

So, what does Junior Achievement do?
So, what does Junior Achievement do?
Junior Achievement of the Eastern Shore (JA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing possibility and powering potential for students, grades K-12, on The Shore. As the liaisons between business and education, we immerse ourselves in local business industries, identify the needs of the marketplace, and develop an innovative, needs-based curriculum that is brought to life by volunteers in our community. We teach concepts that equip and inspire our students to:
Live within their means
Build wealth
Identify fulfilling career pathways
Prepare for the “new norm” of work
Explore entrepreneurial thinking that stimulates our local economy and employs our neighbors
Our interactive, fun approach and digestible curriculum helps students connect what they’re learning in school to real-life experiences; encouraging students to stay in school and making life after graduation a possibility. With the help of our community of Game Changers, our programs are provided to our schools at no cost to ensure all students, no matter where they find themselves in life, have access to JA’s vital programming.
Being a Game Changer says more about who you are, than what you do.

You don't have to be a 6-figure executive to be a leader. Anyone can be a catalyst for change. Our Game Changers come from all walks of life, and we provide different paths of partnership for each season you're in!

Join The Huddle
The Huddle is our monthly donor membership. This group of Game Changers is changing the game every month by giving it. Like you, they believe standing on the sidelines is not an option. Both passionate and dedicated, this group of monthly givers knows the greatest impact is made when we come together. Winning the game may happen on the field, but it starts in The Huddle. Are you ready to change the game? Join the team; because before we can change the game, we have to give it! Have questions? Email Lisa at Lisa.Thornton@JA.Org.
