JA of Central Carolinas Events
At JA of Central Carolinas, we host several events throughout the year to raise money to support our programming. These events also engage the community in our efforts to reach students! Whether you'd like to get involved on an individual level or as a business through event sponsorship, we offer several ways for you to support our work while having a great time!
Pathways 2 Careers
Happening Now!
In Pathway 2 Careers students in grades 9-12 will focus on concepts such as business, careers, choices, goal setting, salaries, resume building, work values and more. The 20-hour virtual program is aligned to state standards and concludes with a career profiler, job fair, career signing day, and a certification deeming them financially and career ready.
Golf Classic
The Junior Achievement Golf Classic, hosted by SPX Flow at Ballantyne Country Club, is a charity golf tournament that unites companies, executives and volunteers to further our mission of helping students identify, navigate and achieve a fulfilled future. Guests are encouraged to join us for a networking breakfast before the tournament and an awards reception immediately following play.
