Mardi Gras Bowl

Junior Achievement's (JA's) annual Mardi Gras Bowl is one of our largest fundraisers supporting youth financial literacy and career exploration.  This two-day event helps JA to fund 20% of the annual cost of the training of business people and the world class financial literacy curriculum we place into classrooms to teach young people about the economics of life.  JA volunteers show students how jobs, money, and business ownership work and bring the five-week curriculum to life by sharing stories about their personal career journey.
