The generous support of businesses, foundations and individuals allows the Mississippi Council to pursue its mission of preparing students for their economic roles as workers, consumers and citizens.  Mississippi teachers benefit directly from this generosity: private funds allow the MCEE to provide most workshops and classroom materials at no cost to teachers.
