JA Events

Excitement is in the air as we gear up for our annual day of giving, #OneDayForJA, coming up on October 6th, 2023!

Participating in the Day of Giving and spreading the word about JA’s mission will provide the building blocks for the next generation’s success, increase our reach to more classrooms throughout Greater Colorado, and help us close the programming gap that is preventing students from meeting their future mentors, who will give them the power to change their word.

A gift of any size is greatly appreciated and will have a huge impact on the lives of students in Colorado.
