Inspired stories of local teens air nightly

STCU and KSPS-TV launch Kids Incorporated

[February 4, 2009]

STCU and Spokane's public TV station this month introduced a nightly feature to highlight amazing local youth in our community.

"Kids Incorporated" is a two- to three-minute segment produced each week by KSPS public television, featuring an inspiring story of an Inland Northwest young person or program. The segments highlight the great things kids do, while promoting education and understanding of personal finance and business.

• Matilda Greiner loves animals so much that she started drawing and selling custom cards to donate the proceeds to the SCRAPS animal shelter.
• The rush is on between second and third period as students at the Mt. Spokane High School student store take orders, bake cookies, make change, and more.
• A University High School student talks about her experiences as a welder in a male dominated profession.

From jewelers to welders, students appearing on Kids Incorporated represent the future of business in the Inland Northwest. Tune into KSPS daily between 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. to watch the next Kids Incorporated segment.
