About the JA Newfoundland and Labrador Business Hall of Fame
Since 1990, Junior Achievement has recognized and honoured entrepreneurs who have inspired others through their investment and success in business and community. As significantly, it has provided the future leaders of our province - our youth - with role models of excellence. In addition to celebrating business excellence, the event is Junior Achievement’s signature fundraiser, supporting work that focuses on the development of financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship for youth.
About JA
Junior Achievement (JA) of Newfoundland and Labrador, a not-for-profit registered charity, is one of 15 charters in Canada. JA inspires and prepares young people to succeed in a global economy by delivering innovative in-school and after-school business education programs to elementary, junior high, and high school students. JA programs prepare students for work and life success by instilling critical competencies related to financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship.
Junior Achievement of Newfoundland and Labrador was established in 1985 and began by servicing 159 students in St. John’s. Today, JA Newfoundland and Labrador provides a range of programs to students in grades 3-12 covering three main educational pillars: financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship.
