Partner with JA for our Inaugural Stock Market Challenge Adult Fundraiser 

Invest in Michigan’s Future - Join the Inaugural JA Stock Market Challenge

An Adult Fundraiser
Wednesday, November 19, 2025
JA Finance Park - Detroit
6-9PM

 As Metro Detroit’s financial experts, you understand that the best returns come from smart investments. At Junior Achievement, we invite you to make an investment that goes beyond markets—it shapes futures.

On November 19, 2025, Junior Achievement of Southeastern Michigan (JASEM) will host its Inaugural Stock Market Challenge Adult Fundraiser at JA Finance Park – Detroit. This unique event brings the thrill of the trading floor to life, where corporate teams compete in a fast-paced simulation of buying, selling, and trading stock. It’s high-energy, high-stakes, and a lot of fun.

But the impact extends far beyond one evening of competition. Proceeds from the Stock Market Challenge directly support Take Stock in Your Future, JA’s capstone program where students learn how to navigate the stock market, build long-term investment strategies, and understand the risks and rewards of trading. By sponsoring this event, you’re helping close the financial literacy gap and inspire the next generation of investors, entrepreneurs, and business leaders.

 

Why Partner with JA?

Your support empowers students with critical financial knowledge, builds bridges between young people and financial professionals, and fosters interest in finance, economics, and business careers. It’s more than philanthropy—it’s an investment in Michigan’s economic future.
