About: PROPEL believes community engagement is an integral part of professional development and building a well-rounded business profile. Junior Achievement of Maine (JA) will also be highlighting one special "Volunteer of the Year". Through volunteer-delivered, hands-on programming for K-12 students statewide, JA programs foster work readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy, helping to prepare today's students for the demands of tomorrow. JA programs bring relevance to academics, deliver authentic learning experiences, and create an immersive learning environment by connecting students to the real world around them. Programs are free to all teachers and bring community volunteers into classrooms to share their own work and life experience with students, opening their minds to career opportunities right in their backyards.
