Junior Achievement is planning a victory celebration Friday, March 10, to honor 51 companies and 2,000 business people who raised more than $150,000 in this year's Super Bowlathon.
The top three fund-raisers were Kennecott Corp., First Security Bank and Discover Card Services. And 20 individuals raised more than $1,000 each.The money will help fund Junior Achievement's 461 kindergarten through 12th-grade classes during the 1995-96 school year.
Volunteers visit the schools and act as role models, while Junior Achievement provides texts, workbooks and learning activities to help the students better understand business, economics and free enterprise.
