The Junior Auxiliary of Madison County (JAMC) recently completed its annual Money for Minds Prize Patrol, awarding teacher mini-grants to several area schools.

The grants aim to support teachers in implementing creative projects and resources in their classrooms. Recipients for this year include Goodloe Elementary School, Canton Career Center, Camden Elementary School, Highland Elementary School PTO, and Madison Station Elementary.

The organization extended its congratulations to all recipients and stated it “can’t wait to see your grant work in action.”

The Junior Auxiliary of Madison County (JAMC) is a non-profit volunteer service organization dedicated to serving the needs of children, youth, and families in Madison County, Mississippi.

Part of the National Association of Junior Auxiliaries (NAJA), which is focused on charitable, civic and educational projects, the JAMC’s mission is generally to provide service to the community, emphasizing projects related to the welfare of children. 

Programs like the Money for Minds Prize Patrol are one way the organization fulfills this mission by providing resources directly to local educators.
