    Achievers!

    I thank Junior Achievement for inspiring and encouraging me to pursue

    my goals. As a former JA student I was exposed to career choices and

    experiences I never knew existed. This allowed me to see what my own

    future would look like and has given me the tools to make it happen!

    Dear friends and supporters,

    Im pleased to present to you the Junior Achievement of New York

    (JANY) Annual Report for our fiscal and academic year which

    ended June 30, 2008. As you read this annual report, you will see

    that the transformative power of the JA experience in the lives of

    the students we serve is undeniable. Weve enjoyed a solid year of

    accomplishments. This past school year, we reached nearly95,000

    students throughout New York City and Long Island, putting into

    action the core of our mission.

    One year ago, our Board approved a 2010 strategic plan that charted

    a course for aggressive growth in both students and funding. Simply

    put, our aim is to reach and inspire as many students as possible.

    Our 2010 strategic plan is guiding us toward repositioning JANY to

    successfully fulfill our mission toInspire and Prepare Young People

    to Succeed in a Global Economy. The plan focuses on three

    mutually dependent growth strategies to:

    Expand our student outreach, with a concerted effort to

    reach more middle and high school students

    Increase volunteer, leadership and funding resources by

    expanding JANY Board membership

    Focus awareness efforts on the impact and involvement

    of JANYs business, educator and community partners.

    To increase impact, we have committed ourselves to broadening our

    reach in Middle and High School markets by tailoring programs to

    meet the needs of the communities we serve. We remain steadfast in

    our goal to make education more relevant to young people at the

    most important time in their lives. JANYs resource engine is fueled

    by inspired Board leadership and partnerships which drive volunteer

    recruitment and fundraising. We are committed to increasing thenumber of business leaders on our Board who share our passion

    for connecting young people to opportunity. By broadening our

    leadership base we expect to generate the resources necessary to

    meet the growing demand for our programs.

    In order to increase impact and resources, it is important to raise

    awareness of the JANY brand and mission. You will read about

    JANYs Alumni Initiativea potential resource to identify, cultivate

    and reconnect with former JA students. An active and engaged

    alumni network provides compelling and inspirational proof of

    JANYs long-term program effectiveness. Their emotional bond to

    JANY makes them excellent volunteer and donor prospects, which

    we believe is critical to enhancing the JANY brand.

    I am grateful to the JANY Board of Directors and our community

    of supporters for making the 2007-2008 academic year successful.

    I also appreciate the continued enthusiasm of our President,

    Doug Schallau, who recently celebrated his 30th year with

    Junior Achievement.

    As we enter an uncertain economic landscape, Im confident in our

    collective ability to remain focused and committed to creating a

    legacy of achievement for New York City and Long Island students.

    Sincerely,

    Anr Williams, Board Chair

    Dear friends and supporters,

    On behalf of the nearly 95,000 New York City and Long Island

    students who received JA programs this year, I would like to express

    our gratitude for your unwavering support and participation.

    Thank you for helping expand our student reach this year by 2%

    accomplishing 98% of our annual goal. In addition, we made good

    progress toward deepening student penetration in the NYC and Long

    Island middle and high school markets. To deliver these programs

    we raised over $4.7 million(exclusive of the present value of a

    $1 million endowment gift), flat to last year and 102% of our

    annual goal. What makes our progress extraordinary is that it has

    occurred during one of the most tumultuous economic climates we

    have experienced in many years. The upside is that these challenging

    times make obvious the increased need for our programs.

    Where challenge exists, opportunity is not far behind. With the

    roll-out of our 2010 strategic plan, we have begun to reposition

    JANYs focus in the Middle and High School market segments. By

    narrowing our concentration on the three key content areas of

    Financial Literacy, Entrepreneurship and Workforce Readiness

    JAs Three Pillars of Student Successwe can help our youngpeople successfully navigate a world where the only constant is

    the accelerating pace of change.

    The 2008 Annual Report builds a powerful case for streamlining

    our strategic focus on the Three Pillars of Student Success:

    FirstThe need for financial literacy education has never been more

    important. As individuals become increasingly responsible for their

    own financial well-being, understanding the economic system will

    become critical to their financial security. It is the only way to address

    the rapidly approaching perfect storm of financial illiteracy. In

    keeping with our commitment to deepen financial literacy among

    young people, this year we successfully tested a new program onLong Island calledJA Finance Park. This program introduces middle

    school students to personal financial planning and career exploration,

    allowing them to experience what it means to balance the household

    budget in a simulated real world.

    SecondWe believe another mega-trend is young peoples

    increasing interest in entrepreneurship programming. Later on in

    the report, you will read about the successful roll-out of a pilot

    JANY Business Plan Competition sponsored by G.C. Andersen

    Partners, LLC. The overwhelmingly positive response from the

    schools and students supports our belief that relevant, real-world

    educational experiences motivate young people to succeed.

    We are also grateful to William G. and

    Virginia T. Halbert who have committed

    a $1 million endowment gift from their

    charitable remainder and other trusts

    toward future expansion and delivery

    of entrepreneurship programming to

    inner-city youth.

    ThirdAs employers become more

    selective in their hiring, focus on

    workforce-readiness programming takes

    on increased relevance. The hands-on,

    practical application of JA programs

    can make a significant difference in how young people approach the

    workplace. Our volunteer role models, who deliver the programs,

    help students connect learning to earningby making a link between

    a good education and success in life.

    As we look to the future, we look to develop deeper and more

    meaningful relationships with our constituents. Your support is a

    vital component of building sustainable capacity to deliver life-changing programs and experiences to young people. Your

    continued support remains critical to our success. Everything we

    accomplished in the past year and everything we will do in the

    future is focused on our mission to Inspire and Prepare Young

    People to Succeed in a Global Economy. We renew our commitment

    to be mission-focused, values-based and driven by the evolving

    demographics in our marketplace.

    We hope you enjoy reading our 2008 Annual Report. Our theme

    this year celebrates the achievements of our students and the

    achievements of our community of supporters and partners.

    Without you these achievements would not be possible. We

    are eternally grateful for your support and participation in ourmission to help young people dream bigger dreams.

    Most sincerely,

    Douglas E. Schallau,President

    The June 2008 Celebration event closed the final chapter on a phenomenal yearof JANY transforming the lives of New York City and Long Islands needieststudent communities. Celebration is a time for us to bond with, acknowledgeand pay tribute to our diverse support base.

    To be this years Educator of

    the Year is a true honor. Many

    teachers work hard every day

    and not many people, or

    organizations take the time to

    recognize the hard work that

    teachers do. Junior Achievement

    has added a new dimension to

    my teaching career

    JANY 2007-2008 Educator Partner of the Year,Mindy Messinger, is a 4th grade teacher at PS 206Joseph F. Lamb Elementary School, Brooklyn.She first welcomed JA into her classroom in 2002.By 2006, Mindy began coordinating JA activities formultiple grade levels in her school. Because of herefforts, JA lessons were taught to her entire schoolduring the 2007-08 school year, reaching 1,200students. In addition, Mindy also organized aspecial assembly around the 100th Day of School.Each student brought in 100 pennies raising atotal of $400. The students donated the moneyto JANY to express their appreciation.

    I was amazed when I stepped

    into the first classroom

    thankful that it wasnt a large

    auditorium full of bored

    facesto see bright and shiny

    faces looking and sitting up

    straight. I relaxed a little more when I saw that hands shot up when my

    mother or I asked the class a questionThis whole experience made me

    realize that there are kids who are ready to learn new things.

    From Success to SignificanceIn June 2008,William G. and Virginia T.Halbert transformed their personalsuccess to a legacy of significance witha $1 million endowment gift to support

    JANYs focus on entrepreneurship

    education. Without a doubt, the Halbertsare achievers and their generosity willinspire future generations ofachievers.

    William and Virginia were moved to actionby their need to make a difference in thelives of urban youth. Where some seehopelessness, William and Virginia chooseto see potential. By making such a generouscommitment, they also hope to create alegacy of giving in their family. Williamspoke with passion about his desire toenrich his family with the gift of giving.

    We wanted to give our family a

    concrete example of making a

    difference in the lives of young

    people by being willing to make

    a commitment. We hope that

    they will be inspired to makephilanthropy a family tradition.

    This is our dream, and the sharing

    of it is writing the most rewarding

    chapter of our lives

    The Halberts generous investment in thepotential of NYC students is a powerfulgift of inspiration driven by their visionto inspire and prepare young people tosucceed in a global economy.

    Innovative Solutions forDriving Volunteer RecruitmentThe leadership and governance providedbyJANY Board Members and strategicrelationships with our corporate partners,are a powerful resource engine. JANYrecognizes the importance and value ofcultivating volunteer role models who reflectthe diverse heritage and life experiences ofthe students we serve. By providing accessto employee networks and affinity groups,our corporate partners enable us to cultivatea diverse and dedicated volunteer network.

    The constant demand for volunteerresources has opened up new opportunities

    for our partners to increase employee volunteer recruitment. TheCorporateSummer Associate Initiative (CSA)is an example of applying innovativesolutions to drive volunteer cultivation. CSI

    was pioneered successfully by companieslike Ernst & Young, KPMG, Credit Suisseand PricewaterhouseCoopers. Due totheir collective efforts, a record numberof corporate internsmore than 450

    volunteered to deliver JA summerworkshops to schools and summercamp sites throughout NYC.

    There is more talent in this city than any other. Helping kids

    acquire entrepreneurial skills offers them hope that hard work

    will produce a payoff for them. And when it does, we all benefit

    from an improved society.

    High-impact programs and experiencesbring together vast numbers of NYC andLong Island students and volunteers. Wecan encourage a broader audience to getinvolved in addressing the educational needsof our children by sharing student and

    volunteer success stories and best practices.

    Inspired LeadershipLeveraging Knowledge, Skill,Desire and OpportunityHugo Balta, Telemundo Vice Presidentof News and News Director, understandsthe persuasive power of reputation, imageand visibility. Hugo serves on theJANYHispanic Initiative Advisory Councilalong with 15 other high profile Hispanicbusiness, education and community leaders.Hugos leadership led to some wonderful

    visibility opportunities for JANY. Telemundo

    produced a Spanish language volunteerrecruitment PSA featuring News Anchor

    Jorge Ramos, which aired in January 2008.In addition, their employees hostedHispanic Job Shadow students.

    Hugos commitment and leadership inspiredTelemundos network affiliate,WNBC-TV,to produce and air a Job Shadow hostrecruitment PSA later in the spring. The PSAfeatured Chris Cimino, WNBC Today inNew Yorkmeteorologist, and JANYStudent Ambassadors. Both PSAs motivatedstudents, parents, educators, alumni and

    local businesses to reach out and reconnectwith Junior Achievement.

    Tapping New Volunteer ResourcesAlternative Spring Break forLife-Changing ExperiencesIn March 2008, 13 students from theUniversity of Missouri-Columbia (UMC)

    were inspired to take an alternative spring

    break. They chose to spend their vacationvolunteering to make a difference in thelives of NYC students. They werepartnered with a new middle schoolHyde Leadership Charter School. Onehundred and seventy 6th and 7th gradersreceived lessons in financial literacy. UMCstudents also shared valuable career advice

    with the middle schoolers and encouragedthem to go to college. Later on in thespring, another college student group fromLongwood University in Farmdale,

    Virginia travelled to NYC to teachfinancial literacy skills to over 300 Bronx

    and Brooklyn elementary school students.Meghan Whitaker, Vice Presidentand group leader for Longwoods

    Alternative Spring Break Programspoke positively about her groups

    volunteer experience in New York City.

    I worked with a partner to

    organize a trip to New York

    Cityto work with a program

    called Junior Achievement.

    I knew working with these

    kids would be rewarding andeducational. It is definitely an

    experience I will never forget.

    We hope both of these student groups JAexperiences have opened up the possibilityof other students taking an active role intheir communities.

    JANY Alumni InitiativeBuilding a Dynamic andEngaged Alumni Community

    Were excited by the advancements madeto cultivate and develop an active andengaged alumni network.JANYs Alumni

    Initiativewas launched a year ago toidentify, re-engage and cultivate former JAstudents residing in NYC and Long Island.The JANY Alumni community is a vast,multi-generational pool of accomplishedpeople who credit JA for developing theirpotential to succeed.

    Since the launch of the alumni outreachproject, weve successfully engaged the

    JANY Associate Board to spearhead theinitiative. Weve grown the JANY Alumnidatabase to more than 300 members,and weve developed an exciting plan to

    leverage the web as an alumni engagementtool. Former students will be able tonetwork, share their JA experiences andtheyll have opportunities to get involved.

    A dynamic and actively engaged alumnibase is central to JANYs ability to ensurethat volunteer and funding resources keeppace with the demand for our programs.

    My experience with Junior

    Achievement has been such a

    blessing. These kids look up to

    us. I think the best part is at th

    end of the day where you sitwith them to color and they

    come up to you with pictures

    they drew for you. Its hard

    saying you wont come back

    the next day when you really

    want to."
