Giving Back
Berthel Fisher Companies believes in the importance of community involvement. With that in mind, our Philanthropy Committee reviews staff requests and identifies organizations throughout the year to contribute to, either through volunteer efforts or monetary donations.

Junior Achievement of Eastern Iowa
Berthel Fisher Companies has been a proud supporter of JA for many years. Junior Achievement’s mission is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed in a global economy.
Junior Achievement has a time-tested approach of engaging students with business and community volunteers and proven program content. From kindergarten through high school, students learn and practice financial literacy concepts with real-world relevance. The JA Pathways model recognizes that financial literacy is shifting to financial competency and well-being, and that we are taking strides now to equip the next generation with the tools and know-how for success in school and beyond. JA programs and content teach how to earn, budget, build credit, buy appropriate insurance, save, and invest, through hands-on learning experiences and useful resources. Students gain perspective of the connectivity within the global economy and its various contributors. To find out more about Junior Achievement click here
