Story

We believe it is our intense focus on hyperlocal news that has allowed us to grow during what has been a very unsteady time for media. Our journalism has been recognized as some of the best in the state and we are well-positioned to further expand our reporting across the region.

We are creating a new Investigative Team that will look deeply at key local issues to seek the truth, create accountability and help uncover solutions.

The time and effort it takes to do this type of reporting is not cheap and we need your help and support. Many of you already subscribe, and for that, we are grateful. But we now are also asking subscribers and non-subscribers to consider making tax-deductible donations to increase our coverage of key issues.

Funds raised will allow us to hire a team of two reporters and an editor so they can focus their efforts on deep reporting that will have a positive impact on the community.

Outstanding local journalism can be an excellent prescription for problems that ail society as we can shine a light on problems and help to offer solutions. The Racine County Eye will bring the same level of commitment, enthusiasm, and focus to our investigative reporting as we have to providing the best local news in our communities.

Thank you for your support of Racine County Eye!
