Junior Achievement of Kentuckiana recently presented its prestigious John L. Helm Award to Marty Bell, chief operating officer of Greater Clark Schools in Clark County, Ind. The honor, named for a staunch, lifelong JA advocate, has been given only four times in JA’s history. It recognized Bell as a dedicated educator, innovative collaborator, and passionate advocate for the region’s young people. Surrounding him were area students at the James W. Robinson Junior Achievement Center for Freedom of Enterprise in downtown Louisville, which serves students of all ages in six counties in Indiana and eight in Kentucky.
