About Giving Your Best
The Giving Your Best Award honors people in our community who have made a significant difference in the lives of others. Award Recipients are selected based on their contributions to our community and ongoing efforts, above and beyond their job, to help others.
On the first Monday of each month, Jennie Montgomery will feature the latest Giving Your Best recipient during the WJBF News Channel 6 at 5:00 PM newscast. The Giving Your Best Partners include, Georgia Bank & Trust, Solvay Advanced Polymers, Walton Rehabilitation Health Center, and WJBF News Channel 6.
Amy McCord
A big crowd of family and friends was on hand for the big surprise. A compassionate nurse, Amy had a good idea.... that became The Medical Mission Clinic, an outreach of Thomson First United Methodist Church.
Student PSA Winners
The GYB Student PSA contest begins in January. WJBF News Channel 6 sends a letter to local elementary, middle, and high schools asking for their participation. In the packet we include a blank story board. The classes are instructed to complete the storyboard and send in their nominations by the deadline in March. We then take the nominations to our Giving Your Best partners and they vote on the top three; one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. News Channel 6 camera crews then go to the schools and shoot their :30 second PSA which airs shortly after.
Congratulations to all of the winners!
Elementary - Parker Elementary
Middle School - Lakeside Middle School
High School - Silver Bluff High School
