An Adult Fundraiser

JA Finance Park - Detroit
5-7:30PM
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 June 11, 2026, 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 teams of young professionals 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.
