Now, Welsh and Associates President and CEO Sheri Welsh has decided to gift that blog to The Kalamazoo Promise.

My company has evolved since the inception of KzooConnect, While I still love the people and stories we highlight, we’re ready to pass on the torch to a group that can take it to the next level – and The Promise is the right group to do just that. - Welsh and Associates release

In the same release, Von Washington, Jr., the Executive Director of Community Relations for The Kalamazoo Promise, said there are some changes planned for KzooConnect.
