Valley program teaches kids how to run a business [Video]

JA BizTown prepares Arizona 4th through 6th graders for the real world by teaching money management and more.

TEMPE, Ariz. — The holidays are expensive and draining our bank accounts as we speak. While the financial aspect can be stressful, it’s also a great time to teach our kids how to be smart with money.
