The Sealaska board of directors will meet on Friday, March 20, 2020, to decide on this year’s spring distribution. The board was originally scheduled to meet on April 3, but directors are calling this special meeting in order to address the economic crisis facing our communities as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19).

“We listened to shareholders who expressed concerns about the impact the pandemic is having on our economy,” said Joe Nelson, Sealaska board chair. “These are unprecedented times and we felt it was necessary to act quickly to make this decision about the distribution and get funds to our shareholders at an extreme time of need.”

Sealaska shareholders on record as of Friday, March 20, 2020, will be eligible to receive the dividend. Direct deposits will be posted on Tuesday, March 31, 2020, and paper checks will be mailed. Please ensure your address and banking information are up-to-date.
