2009 AT&T / Junior Achievement Campaign

Last year, AT&T raised over $500,000 for Junior Achievement of Georgia through the generosity of AT&T employees, contractors & friends. AT&T continues to be Junior Achievement's largest employee fundraising campaign, providing thousands of students in Georgia the opportunity to learn the importance of personal financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurial thinking. This is all made possible through the efforts of the AT&T coordinators who dedicate their time, energy, and creativity to ensuring the success of the campaign.

	Campaign Overview
DATE:	Monday, April 14th, 2009 - Thursday, June 18th, 2009

PURPOSE:	Through the AT&T campaign, Junior Achievement of Georgia will be a part of transformational change for the 113,000 students we will serve across the state. The Campaign provides AT&T employees with a tangible and structured way to give back to the community in a meaningful and fun way, while also deepening the AT&T/JA partnership.

OBJECTIVES:	To raise money for Junior Achievement of Georgia. To educate AT&T employees about Junior Achievement and the volunteer opportunities available. To directly impact middle and high school students by hosting multiple JA Job Shadows at AT&T offices.

PARTICIPANTS:	All AT&T employees and contractors across Georgia.

FUNDRAISING GOAL:	$500,000 - When this goal is reached, AT&T will have provided the funds for 13,333 students across the state of Georgia with JA programs.

FUNDRAISING STRATEGY:	This year, we’ve made reaching the fundraising goal easier than ever, with the AT&T Boot Scootin' Bowl-A-Thon. Each AT&T Coordinator is challenged with the goal of raising $3,000 through the event. To reach this goal:
	Recruit 3 teams of 5 people to participate.
	Register each team online.
	Challenge each team captain with the goal of raising $1,000 for their team. Each bowler on the team will raise $200.
	Utilize our online system to send template emails to those in your network to reach your fundraising goal.
	Each person that reaches their $200 individual goal will qualify to recieve an incentive from JA of Georgia.
