The numbers are in…

Each year for the past 10 years, HBA employees lace up their bowling shoes and hit the lanes to raise money for Junior Achievement of Greater Hampton Roads.  This past March, we were proud to be a part of one of the most successful fundraising efforts to date!  Read that note of thanks we received from Kevin Will of Junior Achievement below, and check out some of the highlights from Team HBA.

 

“Thank you! Before we announce the numbers we would like to take a moment to thank all of the companies, company coordinators, bowlers, sponsors, and donors for an incredible event.  It is because of you that students across Hampton Roads are able to gain the knowledge and skills to own their economic success, plan for their future, and make smart academic and economic choices.  On behalf of Junior Achievement of Greater Hampton Roads, our Board of Directors, and the Hampton Roads students – thank you! 

The numbers are in… This year over $96,000 was raised!

 Let’s give a big round of applause to this year’s highest fundraising companies:  

  • 1st place: BAE Systems
  • 2nd place: Dollar Tree
