Founded locally in 1969, Junior Achievement of East Tennessee serves students by providing a series of in-school, sequential economic, business, and free enterprise educational programs for grades K-12.

"It takes a village to build a JA World."

As of May 2007 JA has pledges of $5,048,000.00 toward building JA World and the JA BizTown program.  This facility will provide 5th grade students throughout East Tennessee an opportunity to run a city for one day as a capstone to their in-class instruction about the economics of business.

With your help, our dream will be their reality for the 2007-2008 academic year. Contact us for more information on investment and sponsorship opportunities.

Our Capstone City was featured in the June 6, 2006 Business section of the Knoxville News-Sentinel.  Click here to read the article (requires free Acrobat reader).
