Local journalism faces serious challenges that threaten to leave more and more people without news coverage of critical issues in their communities. We know of no single solution. We believe many paths can lead to a new and sustainable future.

We are guided by our four strategic pillars:

• Business Transformation (including reader revenue and branded content)
• Journalism Funded by Philanthropy
• Industry Collaboration
• Sustainability for Publishers of Color

Your tax-deductible donation benefits the valuable work to help media organizations transform their ways of doing business, ensuring local journalism can thrive.
