Local Programs - Volunteer

Thanks to the generous help of over 7,000 volunteers each year, Junior Achievement of Southern California is making a direct and significant positive impact on students in our communities.

There are many ways to get involved as a JASoCal volunteer.

JA Finance Park

We need volunteers to help guide students as they become adults for a day and face the Budget Challenge. Time commitment: single day, 8am-2pm. Includes comprehensive one hour training session prior to students arriving. This quick fact sheet should answer any initial questions you have.

JA Day

Each year we host a handful of JA Days throughout So Cal serving an entire school with JA programs at once. Time commitment: about 1-3 hours of advance training and preparation in addition to the day of service which is typically from 7:30am-12:30pm.
