The WNNJ and WSUS Community Calendar whether presented online or on-air is a FREE service for those groups, individuals and organizations that cannot afford paid advertising in any form and that utilize no paid advertising, such as but not limited to cable TV, broadcast TV, newspapers, radio, direct mail, Internet, etc.
The spirit of this portion of our website, as well as the PSA material that is read on air, is to give those community organizations that have no way of paying for advertising a means to spread the word about their services and events. Posts that go against this spirit will be removed without notice.
