Calling All Junior Achievement Alumni: Share Your Story!

Junior Achievement of Greater New Orleans wants to reconnect with the incredible alumni who have been part of our programs over the past seven decades. Since our founding in 1955, we’ve equipped hundreds of thousands of students across Southeast Louisiana with vital skills in entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and work readiness. In 2025, we will celebrate an extraordinary milestone — serving our one-millionth student in Southeast Louisiana!

Were you inspired by JA Company, Applied Economics, Project Business, JA Titan, JA Finance Park, or JA Our Community? If so, we’d love to hear how your JA experience helped shape your journey.

 You’re in great company! Successful leaders like Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, AOL co-founder Steve Case, ABC News Anchor JuJu Chang, former Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer, CNN Senior Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, and NFL Hall of Famer Cris Carter credit Junior Achievement for influencing their careers and success.

 Did your JA volunteer teach you valuable lessons about money, business, or careers? Did JA spark your entrepreneurial spirit or guide you toward your dream job? We want to celebrate your successes and share your story with the next generation of young innovators.

 We want to know where life has taken you and how Junior Achievement played a part in your success. As we honor our rich history and look forward to a bright future, your story can inspire students across Greater New Orleans to dream big and trust their crazy ideas.
