In fact, the other two United Way organizations in the merger - Capital Area United Way of the Lansing area and the United Way of the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo Region - have both undertaken successful mergers of their own.In this episode, UWJC CEO Ken Toll speaks of practical experience in which Jackson County has lost out on resources because of its relatively small size - and how banding together to help form the United Ways of South Central Michigan will mean greater impact for all the communities involved.Episode ResourcesMore EpisodesUnited Way Jackson: Merger Means Greater Impact to Our CommunitiesBattle Creek/Kalamazoo United Way to Maintain Local Focus After Merger with Lansing, JacksonUnited Ways of South Central Michigan WebsiteCapital Area United Way, LansingLansing Area ALICE ReportUnited Way of Jackson CountyJackson County ALICE ReportUnited Way of the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo RegionBattle Creek/Kalamazoo ALICE ReportUnited Way Merger Announcement—The Richard Piet Show  is a Livemic Communications podcast.Could your organization or business use purposeful exposure like this in order to share your story?
