Junior Achievement’s mission is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed. The inspiration piece comes from community volunteers who not only deliver our lessons, but share their experience. In the process, these volunteers serve as role models helping to positively impact young people’s perceptions about the importance of education, as well as critical life skills. Preparation involves our proven lessons that promote financial capability, work and career readiness, and business ownership.
All it takes is five 45-minute sessions in a classroom. Sessions usually occur once a week, but the actual dates and time would be scheduled with the teacher.
Junior Achievement would provide you the training and guidance you'll need to remotely teach Kindergarten through 5th grade students. All sessions must be finished before the end of school (on or before May 19, 2023).

Background: A Free Lawn Mowing Service for Senior Citizens by founder Brian Schwartz.
Laid off from an NYC Ad Agency at the peak of the Covid-19 Pandemic, Schwartz was mowing his lawn soon after to clear his mind and had an epiphany. Thinking about his late grandfather, his father battling brain cancer and a newborn son on the way he wanted to do something good in the world. On a whim, a social distance service was born offering to help his elderly neighbors with their lawn care free of charge and not even accepting tips in an effort to provide not just physical but mental relief. He realized many vulnerable seniors living on fixed incomes can’t afford annual lawn maintenance.
With local, national and international news coverage more volunteers across 6 states signed up to help.
Over 100 client lawns have been serviced through our network of volunteers and landscape partners.

Mission Statement: Put some good out in the universe one lawn at a time by helping our seniors, veterans, disabled neighbors and those in underprivileged communities.

Looking for help with fundraising for our cause in an effort to scale our non-profit nationwide!
