Annual Gala
The Junior Achievement of New York (JA New York) Annual Gala is a premier event held every November, bringing together leaders from business, education, and philanthropy to celebrate the transformative impact of JA's programs on young people across the New York City, Long Island, and Lower Hudson Valley regions.
This inspiring evening is dedicated to honoring individuals and organizations that share JA New York's commitment to empowering the next generation with financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and career readiness skills. The gala features engaging keynote speeches, heartfelt student testimonials, and opportunities to connect with like-minded changemakers who believe in the power of education.
Funds raised during the gala directly support JA New York’s programs, which prepare students with the tools they need to succeed in a competitive and evolving workforce. By attending or sponsoring the event, supporters help ensure that JA New York can continue its mission of bridging opportunity gaps and inspiring young people to reach their full potential.
The Annual Gala is not only a celebration of achievements but also a call to action, encouraging attendees to play an active role in shaping the future of education and youth empowerment. Whether through sponsorships, donations, or partnerships, the gala offers multiple ways to make a meaningful difference in the lives of local students.
