In support of Junior Achievement’s mission to inspire and prepare young people to succeed, Wallace & Turner sponsored the Mad River Region’s superhero themed Bowl-A-Thon on February 27 at Victory Lanes. With the bowlers and sponsors, we were able to raise more than $42,000 to support Junior Achievement programs in our region! WT was also recognized with the Best Costumes award!

Junior Achievement’s proven lessons in financial literacy, work and career readiness, and entrepreneurship are shown to positively impact the lives of young people. These lessons align with national and state educational standards and are delivered to millions of students across the country with the help of our education partners and volunteers from the local community. Research shows that JA Alumni are more likely to have a college degree, feel confident managing money, have career success, and have started a business as an adult.
