We warmly invite you and your organization to attend and consider sponsoring the 2026 Junior Achievement of the Desert Southwest Business Hall of Fame, presented by WestStar. This distinguished event honors visionary business leadership and will take place on Thursday, August 20, 2026, at the Paso Del Norte Hotel, featuring a reception, dinner, and formal induction ceremony.
As one of El Paso’s premier events, the Business Hall of Fame brings together influential leaders from business, education, and local government. Sponsoring this celebration offers a meaningful opportunity to connect with key decision-makers while advancing Junior Achievement’s mission across the border region. For more than a century, JA has partnered with businesses, educators, and volunteers to inspire young people and equip them with the skills needed for future careers.
All proceeds directly support JA programs throughout the region, helping students build financial literacy, strengthen career readiness, and develop an entrepreneurial mindset. We invite you to be part of this extraordinary evening, celebrating excellence while investing in the future of our community and the next generation of leaders.
