JANS – Nissan Neighbors has awarded a $40,000 grant to the Foundation for Mississippi History to support student field trips to the Two Mississippi Museums – the Museum of Mississippi History and the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum.
The grant will help offset costs during the 2026-2027 school year for visits to the museums related to admission, transportation, and on-site lunches, expanding access for thousands of students from Title I schools across the state. The Foundation for Mississippi History conducts fundraising efforts to help support and promote the projects and programs of Mississippi Department of Archives and History, which administers the Two Mississippi Museums.
“We are grateful to Nissan for its continued investment in our educational programs and the students we serve,” said MDAH Director Barry White. “Their support makes it possible to create engaging, hands-on learning experiences that bring history to life and give students the opportunity to connect with Mississippi’s past in meaningful ways.”…
