Realtors of Greater Augusta recently announced a partnership with the Home Builders Association and Habitat for Humanity to educate at the new Junior Achievement Discovery Center of the CSRA.

The Junior Achievement (JA) of Georgia is recognized for its high-impact programs, focusing on financial literacy, career readiness, and entrepreneurship. This partnership aims to teach middle school students about the housing industry.

“RGA is so excited to provide support for the Junior Achievement Discovery Center. We are extremely dedicated to advancing community awareness about homeownership, and we believe that by investing in the education of young minds, we are helping shape a future generation of well-informed future homeowners,” said Regina Wadsworth, President of Realtors of Greater Augusta’s Board of Directors.

Realtors of Greater Augusta plan to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions about housing with interactive sessions and engaging activities. Students will learn about the various facets of housing, home construction and design, and the importance of community development.
