KSSN Employee Campaign for United Way!

We will be reviving our employee campaign for Heart of West Michigan United Way this fall!

From October 14 to November 11, 2024, KSSN employees will have the opportunity to donate to United Way. This is 100% optional for staff, but incentives will be offered for those who are able to make a contribution. There is no minimum or maximum contribution amount set, and you may choose to designate your donation back to KSSN, to another cause of your choice, or to designate to United Way's community fund. If you have any questions, contact Shay.
