The coronavirus crisis has brought the local economy -- and many of the advertisers who support our work -- to a near standstill. During this unprecedented challenge, the Concord Monitor has made all its coronavirus stories free to everyone at concordmonitor.com because we feel our most critical mission is to deliver vital information to our communities.

If you believe local news is essential, especially during this crisis, please donate. Contributions to this fund will help pay for news resources to cover the impact of the virus on our local communities. All donations are tax-deductible.

If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation by check, please make the check payable to "Local Media Foundation" and include Concord Monitor in the memo line.

Send the check to:
