Nexstar Media Foundation Announces Honorees for Day Twenty-Eight of “30 Days of Giving” Initiative
Lubbock Children’s Health Clinic and Midwest Battle Buddies Named as Recipients of $5,000 Grants
Irving, TX (June 28, 2026) – Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXST), today announced that the Nexstar Media Charitable Foundation is making a $5,000 contribution to both Lubbock Children’s Health Clinic and Midwest Battle Buddies as part of the company’s “30 Days of Giving” initiative, a month-long program recognizing and supporting nonprofit and charitable organizations serving communities across Nexstar’s nationwide footprint. Lubbock Children’s Health Clinic and Midwest Battle Buddies were nominated by the employees at KLBK/KAMC-TV, the Nexstar television stations serving Lubbock, TX, and those at KSNW-TV in Wichita, KS, respectively.
“30 Days of Giving” is an employee‑driven initiative created to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Nexstar’s founding in June 1996. Locally-led committees reviewed submissions from Nexstar’s 13,000 employees and selected charitable and nonprofit organizations to nominate for grants. More than 100 organizations were nominated, and the Nexstar Charitable Foundation’s Board of Directors chose 60 to receive $5,000 each. Every day during the month of June, the Foundation will award two $5,000 grants; by the end of the month the Foundation will have committed $300,000 to “30 Days of Giving.”

Midwest Battle Buddies provides service dogs to veterans with Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and other disabilities, helping them achieve greater independence and an improved quality of life. Rather than placing fully trained service dogs, the organization partners with veterans to train their service animals themselves, hoping for a deeper, more meaningful between the pair. Dogs, training, and equipment are provided at almost no cost to the veteran.
By collaborating closely with the VA, veterinary consultants, and IAABC-certified trainers, Midwest Battle Buddies also ensure high-quality care and training throughout the process.
“Midwest Battle Buddies honors the dedication and sacrifice of our service members,” said Jim Baronet, Vice President and General Manager of KSNW-TV in Wichita, KS. “The organization gives our veterans an opportunity to continue to live independently, providing support and companionship to those who may be fighting battles not always seen to the outside world.”

The Nexstar Media Charitable Foundation’s mission is to contribute to and work with public charities and non-profit organizations to improve the communities in which Nexstar Media and its subsidiaries do business.
