Greetings! We hope you have got of to a great start in 2014! January 2014 saw JA India completing 7 years of classroom operations, during which, we have conducted workforce readiness programs for 350,000+ students in 400+ schools across many cities, towns and villages in India with the help of over 2000 volunteers.
We are deeply thankful to all our volunteers whose unstinting effort has helped inspire and shape young minds, bringing them to a better understanding of work and the mindset and attitude they need to succeed. Students find JA programs interactive and fun and say that it inspires them to follow their dreams and make them a reality!
We are equally grateful to all the schools who have partnered with JA India to run work readiness programs and competitions with their students. Without your participation and support, it would not have been possible for us to come this far.
It gives us great happiness to share the JA India Volunteer Roll of Honour 2013 and also the very first JA India School Roll of Honour, as a mark of our appreciation for all those who have been a part of our journey in 2013.
Thank you once again for your support and we look forward to your continued participation in 2014! |
