Celebrating 70 Years

Since 1955, Junior Achievement of Memphis and the Mid-South has been helping young people build the skills, confidence, and connections to own their economic success. On June 4, 2025, we proudly celebrate 70 years of impact—and we’re just getting started.

Join us all year long as we honor our past, celebrate the present, and build bold pathways for the next generation of leaders. Together, we’ll shape the next 70 years of possibility as we continue the work to make every child world ready.

Help us continue our impact for 70 more years and beyond.
