Why Bowl for Junior Achievement?
Junior Achievement prepares and inspires young people to succeed in a global economy. Junior Achievement teaches kids how business works and prepares them to be Eastern Iowa’s future leaders! Through the help of 1,200+ community volunteers, JAEI will reach over 41,022 local K-12 students during the 2011-2012 school year! The Bowl-4-Education event is a fun-filled way to help raise money to support Junior Achievement’s local economic literacy programs.
