Joy Mining Machinery's Mining Education Program


WARRENDALE, PA - December 2008 - Since its inception in February 2001, Joy's Mining Education Program has been presented to over 55,000 children and teachers in the United Sates ranging from kindergarten to college.

The Mining Education Program involves trained JOY employees visiting schools of all grade levels for the purpose of informing students about the benefits of mining and the important role minerals play in their daily lives. Since the students learn practical information about minerals, they are able to understand why the mining industry is beneficial to them.

School principals and teachers interested in finding out more about the Mining Education Program and having a JOY employee visit your school to tailor the program to your specific needs, should contact Michelle Schultz at email address mschultz@joy.com or at phone number 724-873-4242.
