Inspiring Tomorrow's Leaders, Today

Partnering with JA BizTown® to bring real-world learning to life.

At CommunityAmerica, we believe every student deserves a strong start — and that confidence comes from real-world experience. That’s why we’re proud to partner with Junior Achievement of Greater Kansas City to support JA BizTown®, a one-of-a-kind simulated city where area students take on real careers, make real decisions, and learn what it takes to succeed in the real world.

 

This immersive experience helps students connect the dots between what they learn in school and how it applies to life beyond the classroom — from managing money to collaborating with others and thinking like entrepreneurs. It’s hands-on, future-focused learning that empowers the next generation to dream bigger and aim higher.

Together, we’re helping students build the confidence to navigate life, career, and everything in between.

Way to Go: You've Conquered Your JA BizTown® Journey

Congratulations on completing your JA BizTown® experience! During your time with CommunityAmerica, you explored a variety of exciting careers—whether as CEO, CFO, or Member Services Representative—or perhaps you utilized the credit union's services to deposit your paycheck, open a savings account, or manage your money needs throughout the day. Both experiences provided you with invaluable firsthand insights into managing money, running a business, and serving your community.
 
We hope you felt the exceptional, real-life CommunityAmerica experience as you navigated team decisions, delivered outstanding "member" service, and gained a deeper understanding of what it takes to thrive—as an employee, citizen, and consumer.
 
But this is just the beginning of your journey. JA BizTown® was designed to spark your curiosity, strengthen your leadership skills, and reveal the amazing things you’re capable of achieving. Now it’s time to take the next steps toward your goals, unlocking pathways to economic mobility and incredible opportunities for your future. We’re honored, in partnership with Junior Achievement of Greater Kansas City, to have been part of your story and can’t wait to see all the remarkable things you’ll accomplish.
