JA In a Day! MACPA Accounting Blitzes Are Coming Soon!

The MACPA is proud to once again sponsor and participate in the MACPA Accounting Blitzes in partnership with Junior Achievement (JA). Dates and schools are being confirmed – so now we need you, the volunteer!

For the spring Blitz, MACPA has openings for volunteers to visit Detroit, Flint, Lansing, or Saginaw schools. You will teach business basics to a classroom (classes range from kindergarten through eighth grade). Utilizing JA’s proven teaching tools, you could spark a child’s interest in pursuing an accounting career.

It’s easy to participate. Volunteers undergo a training session using JA's award-winning lesson plans. Then, on the day of the Blitz, volunteers spend one day in a classroom teaching the JA curriculum to one of the most impressionable audiences you’ll ever face – elementary students!

Volunteer today by selecting a city (below) and complete the form. The MACPA will contact you with further details.
