Junior Achievement China [Education\Youth]
 
  Junior Achievement China teaches elementary, middle, high school and university students about economics, financial responsibility, and entrepreneurship through business volunteers, while giving them role models and the self-esteem to accomplish their goals. Founded in 1993, Junior Achievement International, China, Inc. obtained a licensing agreement from Junior Achievement Worldwide to develop and implement JA programs in China. Today, JA China has translated, adapted and implemented programs in the Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Guangzhou regions and will reach over 30,000 students this school year.
