JCCF, Inc. Action Grant Funds Each year the Lisa Smolder Reading Support Grant Fund provides grants to Jackson County Elementary Schools through the fund holders selection committee and JCCF, Inc. Board of Directors approval. This fund created in memory of Lisa Smolder, a beloved Ripley Elementary School teacher who believed in the joy and power of reading, provides annual grants to elementary school classrooms to purchase books, material, equipment or underwrite programs that encourage reading and enhance reading levels for Kindergarten through 3rd grade students.
