02 Letter from the President and Board Chair


Dear Friends:
Think back to your childhood. What inspired you? I bet it wasn’t a chapter in a textbook, but rather an adult
who invested time in you. Someone who encouraged you to realize your dreams, plan your future, and take the
necessary steps to achieve your goals.
For Junior Achievement, those adults are heroes and we’re proud to equip them with the opportunity to
empower young people to own their economic success.
Our heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Some wear bowling shoes while others carry a JA program kit.
Whether they volunteer in a classroom, participate in one of our special events, or make a financial investment
Barbara VenHorst
to support our programs – one thing is certain, they all are passionate in inspiring our students to believe in
President
JA of the Heartland
themselves by showing them how to succeed in our global economy.
The 2013-2014 school year was powerful. Thanks to the JA Heroes you’ll see listed in this annual report, we
were able to serve 55,557 students; 2,400 more students than the previous year. We also expanded to new
communities and gained more financial investors.
As educators turn to us for support in providing financial literacy, work-readiness, and entrepreneurship programs
in their classroom, we rely on our JA Heroes to help make it happen. Whether you invested your time, talent, or
treasure to support JA – we thank you for being a JA Hero.
