CORE ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES• Belief in the boundless potential of young people• Commitment to the principles of market-based economics and entrepreneurship• Passion for what we do and honesty, integrity and excellence in how we do it• Respect for the talent, creativity, perspectives and backgrounds of all individuals• Belief in the power of partnership and collaboration• Conviction in the educational and motivational impact of relevant hands-on learning

This past academic and fiscalyear proved to be one ofextraordinary change andchallenge for our nation, ourcity and for our organization.The recent turbulence in thefinancial markets and therecession that followed,significantly impacted the not-for-profit sector. JuniorAchievement of New York saw financial and volunteerresources shrink as a result ofthe poor economy, corporatelayoffs and downsizing. Thefinancial and budgeting lessonsthat we teach our youthsuddenly became paramountfor us, and we knew we had to act assertively and decisivelyto survive this challenge.

We are moving forward by controlling expenses, and driving operational andprogramming efficiencies thatwill balance commitments withcosts. However, we still havemuch work to do in meetingthe challenge of deliveringmuch needed economiceducation programs andexperiences to the youngpeople of New York City andLong Island. I am deeplyappreciative of the support anddedication of my fellow Boardmembers, JA New York staff,as well as funders and otherpartners, for their hard workand support to keep JA NewYork on a steady course.

Following the retirement of our long-time President,Douglas E. Schallau, we arefortunate to have identifiedand hired Joseph A. Peri tolead Junior Achievement ofNew York into a new era ofgrowth and excellence. Joemost recently served as ActingPresident and Chief ExecutiveOfficer of the Council forEconomic Education (CEE), a leading economic education

organization focused onadvocacy and providingprograms in economic andfinancial education forteachers and students ingrades K-12. His work in thenot-for-profit sector spansover 25 years, including 14with CEE, where he previouslyserved as Executive VicePresident and Chief OperatingOfficer, and before that asChief Financial Officer. Joe is a seasoned executive whobrings a wealth of expertise inboth not-for-profit managementand K-12 economic andfinancial education. We are all enthusiastic about the future he envisions for JuniorAchievement of New York.

We invite you to join us incelebrating outstandingindividuals in the JA New Yorkcommunity who have steppedup to take on the challenge ofinspiring others by giving back. By investing time and resources,and by exposing young people to real choices andopportunities, they motivateyoung people to take charge of their future. Their storiesdemonstrate that whileachievement isn’t easy, anything is possible whenencouragement, drive andopportunity meet. We present toyou Junior Achievement of NewYork’s 2010 Annual Report—Profiles in Achievement.

JUNIOR ACHIEVEMENT OF NEWYORK WAS BORN ON THE EVE OFTHE GREAT DEPRESSION. HOWRELEVANT IS THIS HISTORY TOTHE CHALLENGES YOUNG PEOPLEFACE TODAY?

We are at a very critical time inour nation’s economic history,just as we were during JA NewYork’s early days. I’m proud tohave the opportunity to lead anorganization that is focused onachievement and success inboth good times and bad. While most commentators areinterested in the effects of therecent financial crisis andrecession, does anyone doubtthe importance of strongfinancial literacy skills, even in “good times?” Is vibranteconomic development onlyimportant now that we face amore uncertain future? I wouldargue the answer to thesequestions is no. However, it isfair to say that the recent crisishas created a greater sense ofurgency in addressing theseissues. That’s why I think now,more than ever, the work ofJunior Achievement is relevantand necessary.

WHAT ARE SOME OF TODAY’SCHALLENGES, OTHER THAN THEOBVIOUS ECONOMIC ONES?

You cannot read or watch thenews today without comingface-to-face with discouragingeconomic news. But thegrowing debate about theeroding state of education in our country, and itsrepercussions, impacts not just the future of our children,but also our nation’s ability to compete on the globaleconomic stage. In many ways,I believe that these conditionsbring into sharper relief longer-term issues and threats to oureconomic well-being.

HOW DOES JA NEW YORK EXPECTTO MEET THESE CHALLENGES?

Our mission is to “inspire and prepare young people tosucceed in a global economy.”We do this by matchingcorporate and communitypartner volunteers with schools and classroomsthroughout NYC and LongIsland. These volunteers teachK-12 students financial literacy,entrepreneurship, and workreadiness skills.

But these content skills,important as they are, are onlypart of the impact of a JuniorAchievement experience. JA’sextraordinary volunteer rolemodels bring their ownpassion, knowledge andpositive attitudes to helpinspire and motivate youngpeople. Students are able toenvision possibilities andopportunities they may nothave thought of, or had accessto. They see the connectionbetween hard work, staying inschool and pursuing furthereducation, and success; theygrow to understand how theirpersonal success helps advancesocietal good. And while theseexperiences and lessons arevaluable across socio-economiclines, they are especiallyrelevant to underservedpopulations and communities.

When you put this all together,the work of Junior Achievementis really about addressing someof the critical educational andeconomic issues that we facetoday. For example, we are inthe midst of a national highschool dropout crisis, mainly in the largest urban areas of our country. By demonstrating to young people the value ofstaying in school and pursuingfurther educational opportunities,Junior Achievement programsare helping to address thisproblem. Junior Achievement

programs have a positiveeffect on youth developmentin general as kids gainimportant school and workplaceskills, learn how to prepare for their financial futures, and come to understand howsuccess in work and life can be achieved. And all of this:showing kids how business, and entrepreneurship works,and teaching them how to thinkentrepreneurially, whatevercareer path they choose—plays an important role in the economic development and competitiveness of the United States.

WHAT IN YOUR BACKGROUND DO YOU DRAW ON TO HELP GUIDEJA NEW YORK?

Having been in the not-for-profitsector for 25 years, I have gaineda good understanding of whatsuccess looks like for anorganization, and how to getthere. I have twice before joinedorganizations that were at criticalturning points in their longhistories, so I am comfortablewith taking on both thechallenging environment and theexciting opportunities that weface. For the last 15 years, I haveworked specifically in the field of K-12 economic and financialeducation and my formativeprofessional years were spent as a CPA in both public andcorporate accounting. So, I amwell-versed in the value webring, and where to look foropportunities. Ultimately, thebottom-line for us is the same as it is for private sectorbusiness: good management,customer-focused products andservices, and sound financialpractices add up to success.

HOW HAS JA NEW YORKMANAGED THROUGH THECHALLENGES OF THE PAST YEAR?

If there is any one thing that hasbeen spotlighted in the pastyear, it is that JA New York, like

virtually every other private,public, and not-for-profit entity,must learn to do business in anew way. We have tightenedour budget, as you’ll see in thefollowing pages. We havecultivated new talent throughrecent staffing hires. Togetherwith our existing staff, they arehelping us accomplish morewith less. We are diversifyingour fundraising targets andapproaches; we are boosting ouroutreach efforts. We are going tobuild new business, education,and community partnerships tohelp us meet current demandand growth targets.

WHAT DOES ACHIEVEMENTLOOK LIKE FOR JA NEW YORK?

There is great opportunity for usthroughout New York and LongIsland. Our work is morerelevant now than ever before,given new financial realities,global competition, and newcompetencies needed by youngpeople in the 21st Centuryeconomy. There is increasingdemand in the schools for whatwe do. And Junior Achievementis a tremendous brand with aproven track record of success.We have been working withyoung people in NYC and LongIsland for over for 80 years.During this time, we’vepositively impacted the lives ofmillions of kids. For JA NewYork, “achievement” willultimately be measured bybuilding on the lessons of pastsuccesses to help shape,improve, and expand upon JA’shuman capital investment in thelives of young people. I inviteyou to read on to meet some ofthe people who are making thishappen right now.

Job title: Benefits Advisor atSafepath Benefits, Inc.

How many years in this role?Three months

Where did you go toschool/college?

I attended the University ofNotre Dame, then graduateschool at the KatholiekeUniversiteit Leuven in Belgium.

What was your major?

I completed a BBA in Financeand a Masters in EuropeanStudies with a thesis on Socially-Responsible Investments andSustainable Banking.

How old were you when youparticipated in JA?

I was 15 years old.

What JA programs did you haveas a student?

I participated in the JACompany Program and whatwas known at the time as the“Super JA Company Program,”sponsored by Jack EckerdCorp. and St. Petersburg Timesnewspaper in Florida. It was a very memorable experiencefor me and it was my firstintroduction to the businessworld. I remember that Icompeted against two boys for the position of company

president. I’m happy to say thatI won! I was elected Presidentof our student-run JACompany—“SuncoastCreations.” The bonus is thatone of the two boys runningagainst me for the role ofpresident also became my firstboyfriend! Who says businesscan’t create love in the world?The JA Company program wasalso an early introduction tonetworking for the studentsinvolved. We had to work withstudents from multiple areahigh schools. This experienceforced us to step outside of ourcomfort zones to build workingrelationships with each other.

Did your JA experience teach youanything that you were able toutilize, or build upon later on inlife to help boost your career?

JA was the only pre-college“business education”opportunity offered to us byour high school. One of themost important lessons that JA taught me was that I have what it takes to be a leader.

Other lessons learned were that persistence andentrepreneurship can berewarding. Knocking on doorsto sell giant potpourri-stuffedseashells for $10 each gave methe courage and confidence todo sales. I also learned thatcompetitors have the potentialto become strong partners and allies.

How have your early lessons inbusiness, financial responsibilityand entrepreneurship continued toimpact your career, business andpersonal finance decisions as youmove through life?

If you have never delved intothe entrepreneurial world—youare missing out! Entrepreneurshave so much flexibility inchoice and work-life balanceand there’s much satisfactionfrom growing a business fromscratch. Thanks to my father, Ireceived my first glimpse ofentrepreneurial life. For most ofhis career, he worked as a VPof Operations for a nationalmall restaurant franchisecompany. He helped newfranchisees and thosestruggling with their businessesto understand how to improvetheir operations.

However, it was JuniorAchievement that taught meabout marketing, promotionand sales. My primary andlater-life business experienceshelped inspire my “Globalfjord”blog (nearing 10,000 views inone year) about innovations in health, education and environment.

After graduating from college, I expanded my interest inentrepreneurship. I worked forfour years at Europe Unlimitedin Brussels, Belgium. I helpedpromote innovation andentrepreneurship across Europein the tech, clean-tech and bio-tech sectors. It was a greatexperience! I was responsiblefor organizing and attendingmajor events in Belgium, TheNetherlands, Germany,Denmark, Sweden, Finland,UK, Portugal, Spain and Italy. I feel very lucky to haveexperienced so many differentbusiness cultures and to havemet so many inspiring serial-entrepreneurs!

I now work as a Benefits Advisorat an innovative entrepreneurialendeavor created by theMetropolitan Jewish HealthSystem. Safepath Benefits, Inc.is an agency that offers healthplans to those aged 50+ fromtop companies including AARP

DENISE CALDWELLThe Business of Style

City/state of birth/where yougrew up: St. Louis, Missouri

Current city/borough ofresidence: New York City

Job title: Studio and MarketDirector, Stephenson

How many years in this role?Four

College/degrees: HowardUniversity, BA, Journalism

Growing up in Saint Louis,Missouri, Junior Achievementalumna, Denise Caldwell had a passion for fashion. Herpersonal style was inspiredand energized by glamorousand glossy pages in topfashion and beauty magazines.

For Denise, the ultimate dreamwas to have a successful careerin the fashion and beauty

industry, but she knew it wouldtake more than a good eye anda fabulous wardrobe to make itin a highly competitive field.She knew that to succeed, she would have to find her“distinguishing edge.”

Back in high school, it was nosurprise that Denise was voted“Best Dressed.” Denise says,“My mother was always chic,thrifty and fashion savvy.Dressing stylishly camenaturally to me. Although Iwas passionate about fashion,I never thought it could turninto a career for me.”

Denise was an ambitious andactive high school student. She participated in leadershipdevelopment groups, such asJunior Achievement, UpwardBound, Cheerleading andROTC—all of which helpedher to build her resume andcharacter. She started the JA program during hersophomore year. EverySaturday, she would visit alocal college to hear studentsspeak about the transitionfrom high school to college.She attributes these academicactivities to attending theprestigious Howard University.

“I had a diverse group offriends in high school. Somelived in single parent homes,others in foster care, or theywere living in poverty. Myfamily didn’t have the greatestfinancial means,” she says, “butwe all had the same steadfastattitude and believed that wewere destined for great things.That’s why we spent ourweekends and our free timebeing active in academic andextracurricular activities. These activities encouraged us and helped open doors toother opportunities.”

When Denise was accepted toHoward University, she felt herlife was on the fast track tosuccess. As a first-generationcollege student, Denise did notwant to let her parents downand made her studies hernumber one priority. Althoughher heart was still in fashion, shehad always enjoyed writing andchose to major in Journalism.She also took a few fashionmerchandising classes. Shebelieves her career educationcame through internships.

She never scoffed at having to do the dirty work. First, she interned on campus at the university’s Office ofCommunication and whenSeventeen Magazine did a shootfor their “most fashionablecampuses” edition, Denise was

the lead publicist. She workedwith the editors and fashiondirector of the magazine andbegan to get a firsthand lookinto the fashion world. Fromthat initial taste of the industry,she was hooked.

After graduating in 2005, Denisereturned to New York Cityready to start her career. Sinceher family didn’t have any built-in contacts, she leveraged herHoward University network tohelp land some of the mostsought-after internships in NewYork City. Although she lovedthe frenetic pace of the city, therealities of making it in the BigApple made it clear that shewould not yet be living the lifeof her fashion icon, CarrieBradshaw, from Sex and theCity. Denise stayed with her

friend’s parents in Long Island.Each day, she commuted intothe city, but she didn’t take anyexperience for granted. Shemade sure she got the most out of her internships. Shenetworked with everyone atthe company and learned theins and outs of the business.She says this “real world”education taught her more thanany course she took at school.

She was interning at Harper’sBazaar for eight monthswhen she met Mary AliceStephenson, who wasworking as a contributor forthe magazine. Denise waslooking to move into a stylistrole. She quickly went to workand served as fashion andstylist assistant for high profilefashion editors including DariaHines, Melanie Ward, BranaWolf, Jenny Capitan, andAmanda Ross. After thesefreelance stints, Stephensonhired her on a trial basis. Fouryears later, Denise hasexpanded her role and is nowa studio and market director forthe company, STEPHENSON.In her position, she assists with styling for magazines,celebrities and creative

consultations with designersand global brands. Her hardwork has paid off. Denise hasmade an impression on someof the biggest names in theindustry, and she has developeda reputation as a talented andresourceful fashionista.

Denise loves that no two daysin her job are the same. Theadrenaline of the constantchange is ideal for her go-getting personality, but she’sseen a lot of girls buckle underthe pressure and quit. In orderto move up the ladder, she’spaid her fair share of dues.She’s had to steam a garmenteight times to make sure itlooks perfect, go on coffeeruns more times than she cancount, and stand on her feetfor hours holding dressesduring a photo shoot.

But there are obvious perks inher job too. One of Denise’stop experiences was workingwith the Make-a-WishFoundation to make a younggirl’s wish come true. It was thegirl’s wish to wear a RobertoCavalli dress to the prom.Denise staged a celebrity fittingfor the teen, and on the day ofthe prom, she arranged for a

celebrity “glam squad” to comeand work on her makeup andhair. She even planned forMolly Simms to come in andpractice a runway walk withthe excited young teen. Denisesays being a part of a younggirl’s dream come true wasbeyond rewarding.

So far in her career, Denisehas assisted with backstagereporting at some of thefashion industry’s top runwayshows and red carpet events,many of which have beenfeatured on network and cableTV shows including: GMA,Oprah, CNN, NBC, FOX, CBSEARLY SHOW, VH1, E!,Extra!, ET, and BET.

Denise has also helped stylesome of Hollywood’s mostfashionable celebrities includingMolly Sims, Jennifer Lopez,Fergie, Michelle Monaghan,Hilary Rhoda, Liv Tyler,Renee Zellweger, Halle Berryand Sarah Jessica Parker toname a few. Her contributionshave also supported fashionfeatures in top fashionmagazines such as Harper’sBazaar, Essence and Vogue.All this amounts to a prettyimpressive resume for a young woman who is justgetting started. Denise hascome full circle and is nowdedicating her time toinspiring young women andmen to pursue their dreamsthrough Junior Achievement’sJob Shadow Program.

She credits tenacity and hardwork with her ability to surviveand thrive in the business offashion. “The real fashion gameis hard work,” she says. “It’snot just about, ‘oh this is cute,and I like this outfit.’ Thereality is that it’s a lot of work.You have to be on your toes tothink constantly and act fast

when called upon to do so.This is what I would like toconvey and impress upon any student wanting to enterthis field.”

She continues, “A lot of kidsjust think it’s easy to become a designer, or a stylist. It’s noteasy, but there are so manymore opportunities available tothose who are willing to workfor it,” she says. “You can workon the retail side, be a creativedirector, work in fashion pr, orwork on advertising campaigns—the opportunities are endless.”

She also wants students toknow that in the digital age,technology, when used theright way, can give them acompetitive edge.

“In just a few minutes you canresearch a company beforeinterviewing, and you can readand access fashion magazinesand archives from all over the world. If you like writing,try blogging about fashion. All of these initiatives will give young up-and-comingfashionistos an edge overcompetition and a head-startover previous generations.”

By encouraging students topursue their dreams and givingthem tips on how to do so,Denise hopes to honor andcontribute to positiveinfluences from her past—like Junior Achievement. Hergreatest wish is to impressupon young people herpersonal motto and equationof achievement: “preparation +opportunity = success.”

2009 STUDENT LEADER OF THE YEARSumit PalClass of 2009, Information Technology High School

Sumit Pal is an alum of theJunior Achievement of NewYork Student Ambassadorprogram (2007-2008). Sumitattributes his experience at JANew York with giving him the

knowledge, confidence andsocial skills he felt he neededto break out of his shell.

“It is clear to me that theopportunities and experiencespresented by Junior Achievementwere instrumental in boostingmy confidence and giving methe motivation I needed to excel.In the past two years, I’ve givenspeeches at colleges, madeelevator pitches to potentialinvestors and led a team of mypeers as CEO of a student-runbusiness enterprise. The StudentAmbassador program gave methe confidence to confront my weaknesses.

For many young people who arefaced with overwhelming odds,it’s tempting to believe that theonly choices available lead to adead end. Fear of failure andlack of opportunity either drivesus to action or spirals us into a state of despair. We may not recognize that ourcircumstances do not define us.”

After graduating fromInformation Technology HighSchool in Queens, Sumitenrolled at New YorkUniversity Polytech, where hestudies computer engineering.

Who are your role models?

My role models are not rich or famous. I admire peoplemuch closer to home. Mygrandmother taught me to be charitable. My first boss,Andrew Loungo, taught me thevalue of hard work, the valueof teamwork and how to beresourceful and creative.Through his guidance, Ibecame better at mentoringothers to be successful at theirjobs. He opened the door tomy first business experienceand provided me with supportduring my days in high schooland in college. Finally, I admireand have learned so muchfrom my best friend’s wife—Valerie—who struggles dailywith Chrohn’s disease. Fromher, I have learned so muchabout courage and strengthduring life’s setbacks andchallenges. These are thepeople who have inspired me the most.

The thing I am most passionate about in life is…

Well, I feel very strongly about providing young people with the best startpossible in life. Education andcivic responsibility is reallyimportant to me. Each of ushas a role to play in makingthe world a little bit better for ourselves and others. We all have something to give,whether it’s time, money oreven just an idea of how tosolve a pressing socialproblem. I’m also passionateabout nature, my family andtrying to be a good father androle model. Last and not least,I have a strong passion forfood. I was raised around thefood industry, and I enjoycooking as well as fine dining.

When and how did you firstbecome involved with JuniorAchievement?

I have been fortunate to workfor two great firms: GoldmanSachs and Barclays. My firstexposure to JA came back in1995 when I participated inGoldman Sach’s first Bowl-A-Thon. It was an amazingexperience for all involved. We managed to grow it from asmall ten-lane event, to a two-day, 80-lane event, whichnetted over $125,000 to supportJA New York’s programs. Bythe time I left the company,participation in Goldman’sannual Bowl-A-Thon event had become contagious amongcompany employees. It hascontinued to evolve over the years.

Whether it is teaching JAprograms in the classroom,inspiring students to teach JAprograms to first and secondgrade students, hosting jobshadow days, or being part ofJA New York’s Associate Board,

I see the value in the work weare doing, and I appreciate theconstant support from both myfirm and my colleagues, whoafford me these opportunities.

What do you find mostmeaningful about the JuniorAchievement mission?

I’m hard pressed to find anothergroup of people who are thispassionate and committed inpursuit of their mission toinspire and prepare youngpeople to succeed in a globaleconomy. As an organization, its ability to adapt to the ever-changing scholastic andeconomic landscape, to attractdedicated and talentedindividuals, is unrivaled.

What are your proudestaccomplishments as a JuniorAchievement volunteer?

I’m most proud of succeedingin setting up an annualscholarship fund at Forest HillsHigh School—the JA partnerschool where I have beenvolunteering for the last sixyears. With the assistance ofthe business school teacher(Robert Suydam) and thesupport of Barclays and JANew York, we created aprogram to highlight and awardtwo students each year, whosecommitment exemplifies JA’score values.

I’m also very proud of the JAfundraising legacy I helpedcreate at Goldman. I’mfortunate to now have thesupport of Barclays to work in support of JA New York. I’m happy to say that we’vealready hosted successful crossdivisional events at Barclays,and I look forward to continuedgrowth and expansion.

What lessons of achievement can be found in the volunteer experience?

I think one of the core lessonsis that success is not easilyachieved. Success comes to usin small steps—it can only bemeasured over time. This is truewhether you’re a student or acareer professional. Continuededucation, hard work,commitment, preparation andteamwork are all part of thecore skills that contribute tosuccess in life. Volunteering ina JA classroom is a humblingexperience. No matter howimportant you think your jobis, you begin to understand thatthere is nothing more importantthan having the responsibilityfor helping to shape the livesand futures of our kids.Teachers are the backbone ofour children’s lives. They needall of us to step up and supportthem in what is perhaps one of the most important rolesanyone in life can have.

In your opinion, how does asocial responsibility programbenefit a company and its employees?

Speaking freely, from my own experience, knowing thatBarclays would support not only my career needs, but wouldallow me to continue to engagein a wide range of philanthropicefforts weighed heavily in mydecision to accept Barclays as an employer of choice. I seesimilar concerns expressedwhen recruiting new employees.Today’s generation is greatly intune with helping those in need.Financial service firms aredeeply rooted and grounded in their support for communityservice and diversity, withmany achieving close to 100%employee participation insupport of those in need.

At Barclays, we have a widevariety of programs supportinga diverse platform of causes andpersonal charities.

Tell us about your mostmemorable JA volunteerexperience moment?

Over the years, there havebeen so many, but, I wouldhave to say that there weretwo moments that I considerhigh points:

During 2000-2001, like now, we were experiencing turbulentfinancial times. I was preparingto host the annual JA Bowl-A-Thon. After the previous year’sfundraising high of $175,000,there was enormous pressure toraise the bar. This was duringthe dot-com bust when thingswere looking very bleakeconomically. But through anoutstanding effort by allparticipants and donors, webeat the odds and raised anamazing $225,000. Sometimeschallenge brings out the best in us. Even in tough times,individuals are still willing toreach down deep and give tohelp others. It was nothingshort of amazing!

The next occurred this past yearwhen we hosted our largest JAJob Shadow ever at Barclays.The support was overwhelmingfrom both students and BarclaysCapital ambassadors. This year,we are looking forward tosurpassing last year’s success.That’s what achievement is allabout: setting goals, reachingthem and moving forward withrenewed purpose andaspiration.

The thing I am most passionate about in life is…

Working and shaping the livesof the students that I serve.

Who are your role models?

• Joanne Frank, formerPrincipal at NormanThomas High School.

• My parents.

When and how did you first become involved with Junior Achievement?

In 1994, I became AssistantPrincipal at Norman ThomasHigh School for CommercialEducation. I took over theAccounting Department of a large business high school.Immediately, I became involvedwith Junior Achievement inorder to strengthen and enrichthe students’ learningexperiences as well as theirexposure to myriad possibilitiesin the business world. A fewyears later, JA was establishedas part of the education cultureof our school, and we wereproviding access to enrichmentprograms and experiences, such

as JA Job Shadow, to as manyas 500 students annually.

What do you find most meaningful about JuniorAchievement’s mission?

I can think of only a feworganizations that are trulyaccomplished at inspiring andpreparing young people for the real world—and JuniorAchievement is one of them.This is only possible throughthe work and dedication ofenergetic business andcommunity volunteers whoserve as role models and sharetheir knowledge and expertisewith our students.

What has been your proudestaccomplishment in life and in your career?

My greatest accomplishment inlife happened through a periodof four years, 2005-2009. I wasgiven the opportunity to build a business high school fromscratch. Through the support ofJunior Achievement, and otherorganizations with which I havepartnered for many years, wehave been able to build one ofthe most successful businessfocused high schools in NewYork City.

What lessons of achievement doyou think your students get fromJunior Achievement?

Junior Achievement programsand volunteers have beeninstrumental in providing ourschool with a rich selection ofbusiness education, financialliteracy curricula and volunteerinvolvement. The volunteersenrich many aspects of schoollife. My students have receivedwonderful opportunitiesthrough JA New York’s businesspartnerships, including:mentoring, public service,

career development andworkshops, scholarship and internship opportunities.

In your opinion, how does thepartnership with JA New York and the business communitybenefit a school, its educators and its students?

The partnership with JA New York and the businesscommunity has enriched andexposed our students to currentand emerging careeropportunities in the businessworld. It has also empoweredthem to take charge of theirfuture as they gain a betterunderstanding of what isneeded to succeed in theoutside world. Our students arebetter equipped to makedecisions about college and lifein general through thesebusiness interactions.

What do you consider to be thegreatest challenge facing studentswho graduate from your school?

The greatest challenge facingstudents who graduate fromour school is finding a part-time job after school or asummer internship. Duringthese difficult economic times,many of them have greatdifficulty meeting collegeexpenses. Finding employmentis a tremendous challenge.

What’s your greatest wish for thestudents in your school?

My greatest wish for thestudents in our school is forthem to become highlysuccessful individuals incollege and beyond. This is the core mission of our school.

Share your most memorable JAvolunteer experience with us.

One of the most memorable JA volunteer experiences that I can remember was when weintroduced the Business PlanCompetition Program to ourstudents two years ago.Through the help and supportof business volunteers, studentsrealized that innovative ideashave value and are worthpursuing. They also learned that the greatest experiencecomes from making mistakes or missing the mark—as long asyou are able to take what youhave learned and try again.

The thing I am most passionate about in life is…

Helping and inspiring youngpeople, including my three sons,to achieve their full potential.

Who are your role models?

My role models are my mother,who was the epitome ofselflessness and empathy; Mrs. Mavis Roberts, my highschool English teacher forinspiring me; and Maya Angeloufor her resilience and creativity.

What is your definition of achievement?

My definition of achievement isaccomplishing what one has setto do, whether big or small;meeting every goal deservesrecognition and celebration.

What is your proudestaccomplishment in life?

My proudest accomplishmentsinclude: returning to school afteralmost 20 years to complete bothmy degrees with honors as a recipient of the New YorkCoalition of One Hundred Black

Women’s Leadership Scholarshipprogram. And in my teachingcareer, I was most proud to seestudents I had taught for fouryears, graduate from theAcademy of Hospitality andTourism last June. I was sothrilled to see that many ofthem were headed for college.

What do you find mostmeaningful about the JA missionfor your students?

What I find most meaningfulabout Junior Achievement’smission and programs, is theawareness and responsibility thatit creates in our students. Our JA New York High School HeroProgram students learn so muchabout community, family andfinances while they teachyounger students basic moneymanagement skills. Additionally,the admiration and respect theyget boosts their self-esteem,while the challenges they face asteachers help them to be betterstudents. Through the JA NewYork Student AmbassadorsProgram, students interact withsuccessful professionals and self-made millionaires. It inspiresthem to believe that they too canachieve. The JA Job Shadowprogram is unparalleled forgiving students insight into theprofessional world, businessetiquette and the myriadopportunities available with NYCand Long Island companies.

I think that the most importantlesson of achievement mystudents get from their JuniorAchievement experience is thatwhere you start, or where youcome from, does not matter;with the right motivation,attitude, and effort everyonecan be successful. Hearing self-made stories of success from

people like JA New York Boardmember, Kevin Liles, has aprofound impression on the minds and attitudes of young people.

What kind of changes have youseen in your students whoparticipate in JA programs?

I have seen many positivechanges in my students whohave participated in JAprograms. Invariably they aremore confident, articulate andsavvy, especially the StudentAmbassadors. Seniors whoparticipated in the JANYUniversity program had a morepractical and realistic approachto college selection and werebetter informed about theapplication process.

The partnership with JA New York and the businesscommunity benefits our school,its educators and its studentsby extending the classroominto the real world so thatstudents can see the relevanceof what educators are trying toteach. When students makethis connection, they are moreeager to learn, it becomeseasier to teach, and there is

significant improvement in theschool environment andperformance statistics.

What’s the greatest challengefacing your students?

I think the greatest challengefacing students who graduatefrom the Academy of Hospitalityand Tourism, is making thetransition from a small, highlypersonalized, learningcommunity to large collegecampuses that are more diverse,and where they are unknown.Those who have had theopportunity to participate inJunior Achievement programswill adapt more easily becauseof the social and networkingskills they have acquired.

What is your greatest wish for your students?

My greatest wish for mystudents is for every one ofthem to receive an enrichingJA experience that proves tobe beneficial to their growth.It would be the perfectcomplement to our school’smission to prepare studentsfor the global marketplace.

The opposite of achievement isfailure. In my mind, failure andachievement are two sides of thesame coin; you can’t have onewithout the other. My definition ofachievement is how high youbounce when you hit the floor.Everyone goes through toughtimes, but how do you know thatyou have what it takes to surviveand learn from it? I like to thinkthat I do.

Education is important in myfamily. I’m passionate aboutsecuring my future and helpingmy family with financial needs.One of my dreams is to go tocollege so that I’ll be betterpositioned to help my parents.My biggest fear is not being ableto achieve the educational andlife goals I have set for myself.

My early educationexperiences were in the CrownHeights, Brooklyn publicschools. The schools I attendedwere over-crowded, dirty,sometimes violent and hadvery few resources. You can’timagine what it’s like trying tolearn in an environment likethis. It affected me greatly.

It’s hard to stay focused oneducation when the peopleand environment that surroundyou are negative.

By the time I reached middleschool, I changed from a kidwho loved school andlearning to one whose primaryobjective was to do whateverit took to get home in onepiece. I was under a lot ofpressure from my peers to notbe smart or academic. Beingidentified as an intelligent kidcould get me hurt. I soonlearned that if I wanted tosurvive my middle schoolexperience, I would have toreject everything that mademe appear to be differentfrom my peers. It becamemore important for me toavoid being bullied than it did for me to learn. Soon, Ibecame influenced by badthings and situations andspent more time trying to fit in than I did on studying.

Thankfully, everything changedwhen I got to high school. Myparents moved our family outof Crown Heights into an EastNew York residentialneighborhood. It was like nightand day. The environment wassafer and less stressful. Now wewere in a lower middle classneighborhood of families whowere more invested in theircommunity. In my newneighborhood, people had aclearer vision for their futuresand had access to resources tohelp them reach their life goals.

In addition, I now had theopportunity to attend a betterhigh school—Murry BergtraumHigh School for BusinessCareers, located in downtown

Manhattan. What I appreciatemost about Murry Bergtraum isits racial, social and academicdiversity. I also appreciate thatthere are more resourcesavailable to students. Most ofall, the environment is safeand I can focus on academicsinstead of survival tactics.

However, high school wastougher than I anticipated. One of the biggest challenges I faced was the discovery that I was seriously behind in the

skills and basic foundations of learning that I needed tosucceed in high school. I foundmyself struggling to get goodgrades because of what Imissed out on in middleschool. I had to make up mymind to work harder because I had a lot of catching up to doif I was to even come close toachieving my goals in life. Itwas also hard breaking awayfrom the past. Sometimespeople would continue to

under-estimate my academicabilities, or judge me on myperformance in the past. Notonly did I have to work toimprove my grades, I also hadto struggle against the pooracademic reputation that thisrecord gave me in the eyes ofmy teachers and peers. As aresult, my confidence level wasvery low and there were manytimes when I felt lost and“invisible” in my high school.

I continue to struggle againstself-doubt. Often, I secondguess myself, and it alwaysthrows me off course. It takestime to get negative thoughtsout of my head. I can still hearvoices from my past that toldme that I’m not smart enoughor good enough to make it inlife. Sometimes I feel over-whelmed by the academicchallenges I face, and I have tostruggle with the fear that I amgoing to get so close, only tohave everything fall apart.Before I became serious aboutmy education, I thought I’d beextremely lucky to end up ina local community college. Iwasn’t even thinking aboutleaving New York City, or NewYork State. Once I realized thatI had real choices and I wasaround people who are drivento do well, I became motivatedto do better in life.

The most important sources of motivation in my life havecome from adults who haverecognized my potential. Theyhave opened my eyes to whatlife could be like when realchoices and opportunities areavailable. My heroes are mymother and my father. Both ofthem work two jobs to put aroof over our heads and tomake sure that all their childrenare able to attend college.

Outside of my parents, mymain role model is my uncle.He works with Goldman Sachsas a VP in the IT department. I am so proud of what he hasachieved in life.

Through Junior Achievement,I’ve been lucky enough toconnect with many people whoI admire and look up to. JasonCarter is my mentor. He attendsWharton School of Businesswhere he is working on hisMBA. My dream is to followthe same path he is on. AnréWilliams, JA New York BoardChair and President of theAmerican Express GlobalCommercial Card group, hasgiven me encouragement andadvice that has motivated me totry harder. Mr. Williams had towork hard to get where he is inlife and I admire his work withJunior Achievement. Throughhis work at American Express,he invests in the economy. Inhis work with JuniorAchievement, he invests in thelives of young people like me.

I understand how important it is to be surrounded andsupported by people who care about achievement andsuccess. I’ve learned not totake inspiration or achievementfor granted. This is why oneday, I want to help open aschool in a challengingneighborhood. I want it to be a neighborhood like the onewhere I spent my middleschool years. Not every kid islucky enough to have anopportunity to live and go toschool in a supportive and safeenvironment, where all theyhave to worry about is studyingand getting good grades. Idon’t want other kids to haveto go through the same things I did. All kids have a right to

attend good schools where it issafe to learn. It’s just a promiseI made to myself.

Now my vision is to attendbusiness school because I’minterested in becoming astockbroker, or an investmentbanker. My goal is to study adouble major of Finance andBusiness Management. One ofthe challenges I face is meetingthe standard of performancerequired to get into a goodschool. Accomplishing mydream of graduating from agood business school programis one of the achievements Iam most looking forward to inmy immediate future. Like mostchallenges in life, it won’t beeasy, but I feel confident in myability to do what it takes tosucceed; because now I knowthat when I hit the floor—I’mgoing to bounce back—andhow high I go from there is forme to determine.

We are proud to congratulateW.T. Clarke’s High Schoolstudents—Samantha Wendorf,Samantha DiFilippi andKareema Roushdy, the 2010winners of the JA New YorkBusiness Plan Competition.This is the second consecutiveyear that a team from W.T.Clarke High School has walkedaway with top honors in JANew York’s highly popular andfast growing experiential,entrepreneurship educationprogram. During the 2009-2010school year, more than 700young, aspiring studentsparticipated in various stages of the program.

The JA New York Business PlanCompetition was originallyinspired by an art and designhigh school entrepreneurialcontest, hosted by JA New YorkBoard Company, KPMG. In2008, JA New York and G.Chris Andersen, JA Alum andBoard member, co-founded thecity-wide JA New York

Business Plan Competition. Mr.Andersen saw an opportunityto expand upon KPMG’s modelby formalizing and creating anentrepreneurship incubatorprogram for high school students.And the JA New York BusinessCompetition was born. Since itsinception, nearly 2,000 NYC andLong Island students havereceived a businessentrepreneurship experiencethrough this program.

Two years later, the JA NewYork Business Plan Competitionattracted the attention of theNASDAQ OMX EducationalFoundation, which saw anopportunity to invest in a high-impact, youth entrepreneurshipeducation program that hascaptured the enthusiasm ofNYC and Long Island studentswithin a very short period oftime. In 2009, The NASDAQOMX Educational Foundationmade a $1 million grantcommitment to JA New York to fund the growth and reach of

the Business Plan Competitionover a five-year period in NYCand Long Island.

With the generous support ofour partners, JA New York isdetermined to fulfill its vision toincrease youth entrepreneurshipopportunities in NYC schoolsand communities by:

• Inspiring and seeding NYCand Long Island students’interest in entrepreneurismas a pathway to economicand social empowerment;

• Encouraging the use ofentrepreneurial thinking to conceive and drivesolutions to tackle businessand social problems;

• Reinvigorating theentrepreneurial spirit in a future generation ofbusiness leaders to secureAmerica’s place as a globalbusiness innovator andtechnological andeconomic leader.

By successfully engagingstudents in entrepreneurialthinking and creativity within abusiness context, the JA NewYork Business Plan Competitionis designed to make educationmore relevant and exciting tostudents. Through this dynamicentrepreneurship experience,young people learn to makeconnections between what theylearn in school, and practicalapplications of this knowledgein the business and work world.
