Mississippi Mississippi

Our Generational Commitment

1942

We make our first investments in Mississippi, supporting pre-med scholarships.

1950s

Our grants support curricula and other resources at colleges and Historically Black Colleges and Universities across the state.

1990s

We expand our investments from education to rural health care access, leadership development and job training.

2007

Given the high number of children living in poverty but, more important, the experience and legacy of our local partners, we named Mississippi a priority place, committing investments for at least a generation.
