Overview

Mission

To provide economic education to local students to inspire and prepare them to succeed in a global economy. The Organization merged with another nonprofit organization at the end of the fiscal year.

What it reported doing in 2023

Junior Acchievement provides economic education programs for high school, middle school, and elementary school students throughout Clark, Champaign, Logan, and Madison Counties. The program is provided through the school systems and other outreach platforms to students at no cost to the students or schools. During the 2022/2023 school year, the Junior Achievement curriculum was taught to 1,198 high school students, 684 middle school students, 957 mixed grade level students, and 3,715 elementary school students.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 63% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 88% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
