WAY-FM Network/Colorado Springs, CO's 30th Anniversary Alaska Cruise Brings School Supplies For Needy In Juneau

WAY-FM 30th Anniversary Alaska Cruise

Contemporary Christian network WAY-FM/COLORADO SPRINGS, CO, marked its 30th anniversary with an ALASKA cruise, offering a special opportunity for those on board to give back to the people of the state by providing a backpack full of school supplies for needy children in JUNEAU. This event was facilitated locally by LOVE, INC.. a local non-profit organization in JUNEAU.

The 121 full backpacks were presented dockside in Juneau by WAY-FM’s CARLOS to LOVE, INC. Executive Director GUY CROCKETT and ALASKA's first lady DONNA WALKER.

Noted CARLOS, ““I was blown away by the generosity of our listeners. When we go on vacation it’s easy to put yourself in a “ME” mindset. The fun I will get to have, the places I will get to go, the things I will get to do. For us all, WAY-FM staff included, to put that vacation mode mindset aside and bring so many backpacks to bless the children of JUNEAU was a beautiful thing to see.”

WAY MEDIA COO LLOYD PARKER noted, “This event fit in perfectly with our LIVE (IT) OUT initiative, where we encourage our listeners to participate in service projects in their local communities. We had a 54% participation rate per cabin, which is terrific. And special kudos to our friends at INSPIRATION CRUISES & TOURS for helping put this together, we couldn’t have done it without them.”
