JA BizTown | Junior Achievement of Central Iowa

 

 

Innovative | Bold | Relevant

JA BizTown is all that, and more. This experiential learning center exists to inspire responsible business owners, consumer and citizens.

Students get to interact within a simulated economy and learn what it takes to run a successful business, manage a debit card and checking account, and work as a team.

How You Can Volunteer

Volunteers are needed to mentor small groups of students throughout their day at JA BizTown.  No special expertise or preparation is necessary and thorough training is provided for all volunteers! Parent volunteers should contact the classroom teacher to get involved. We have a few JA BizTown simulations that currently need more volunteers! If you are a community volunteer please sign up HERE.
 
If you would like more information about how you can become a JA BizTown volunteer please contact Shannon Gerard or call 515.279.9602 ext 218.
