“We are extremely excited to partner with such a fantastic organization. To be able to support a program designed to provide kids with hands-on economic and business education programs could not be more fitting. In fact, the graduates of Junior Achievement may very well become future members of Metro EDGE. Opportunities of this kind are what will enable these young children to succeed in the business world, and I can only hope to one day see them thrive.” Full Story.
