MEMORANDUM

Posted: February 24, 2020 01:29 PM
From: Senator Camera Bartolotta
To: All Senate members
Subject: Junior Achievement Month Resolution
 
As chair of the Labor and Industry Committee, I recognize the importance of workforce development programs to help ensure citizens gain the training and skills needed to be prepared for the jobs of today and the future. That’s why I will be sponsoring a resolution recognizing May 2020 as “Junior Achievement Month” in Pennsylvania.

Junior Achievement is the world’s largest organization dedicated to educating students about workforce development, entrepreneurship and financial literacy through experiential, hands-on programs. These programs help prepare young people for the real world by showing them how to generate wealth and effectively manage it, how to create jobs which make their communities more robust, and how to apply entrepreneurial thinking to the workplace. Thanks to Junior Achievement, over 6,000 business, community and parent volunteers currently touch the lives of more than 200,000 students in kindergarten through grade 12 in public and private schools across the Commonwealth.

Please join me in support of this resolution which acknowledges the efforts of Junior Achievement and commemorates the 81st anniversary of its founding in Pennsylvania.
