Battle of the Banks | Junior Achievement of Central Carolinas

JA Bowl-a-Thon: battle of the banks

When: TBD

Where: TBD

Challenge your co-workers and other local bankers to a friendly game and raise money for Junior Achievement!

Participating in the Junior Achievement Bowl-a-Thon is a lot of fun, but more importantly it will help impact the lives of over 40,000 local students during the 2016-2017 school year. JA does this by using hands-on experiences to help young people understand the economics of life. Whether you're a bowler, team captain, company coordinator, or a donor, we depend on you for our success. Thank You!

This web site is your Bowl-a-Thon headquarters. Click the links to the left to start a new bowling team, join an existing team, or make a donation on behalf of a bowler.

You don't have to be a banker to be part of Battle of the Banks—anyone in the finance industry, a finance or accounting department, or friends or colleagues of someone who works in finance—all are welcome. We do not discriminate on the basis of your job! Come and be part of the fun!

If you have any questions, please contact Carrie Van Brunt or call 704.563.4855.
