Hi, awesome person who cares about kids being informed and having some fun along the way!

The Ten News podcast is a news show for curious 8-12 year olds and their grown-ups. We cover everything from Ukraine and the Supreme Court all the way to Pokemon and Minecraft. But, we need your help to continue covering topics like this!

OUR MISSION: Kids are bombarded with information these days whether it’s from their device notifications, TVs on in the background, or whatever they hear talking with their friends at school. The Ten News is a show that breaks down information and shares the news & current events in a digestible way to help kids stay cool, kind, and informed. We’ve hosted guests like Dr. Anthony Fauci, Sarah Natochenny (the voice of Pokemon’s Ash Ketchum) and Amy Corbett from LEGO Masters!

AND TEACHERS AND STUDENTS LOVE US!

OUR GOAL: In order to continue the show and our important work of breaking down the biggest stories of today, (with a few eye-rolling jokes in the mix) we need your support.

The Ten News is actively fundraising and working with Journalism Funding Partners to finish Season 4 of the show! We've had some great support so far and have set a goal to gather 100 additional donors to help us reach our final goal of $150,000. Any contributions you make are TAX-DEDUCTIBLE! Every little bit helps and every big bit will allow us to create even more content at The Ten News!

If you really love The Ten News, any gift over $1,000 will be eligible for a cameo on the show! Whether that’s joining us on the Trivia Throne or sharing your favorite fun fact, we'd love to have you join us!

GOAL: 100 donors to reach $150,000 and fund Season 4!

HOW WE’LL USE THE FUNDS IN SEASON 4:

Increased climate change coverage & environmental news
Increased coverage from our kid correspondents
New expert series to help listeners process & participate in the news
New segments on how to spot misinformation & disinformation
New weekly coverage of animals in the news & all things happening in the animal world
