OpenNews shares power, knowledge, and care image

Journalism is for everyone. OpenNews helps make that a reality with your help.

For 15 years, OpenNews has served and connected courageous, caring people working in journalism and tech to others who really give a damn about making a difference. Our community is a support network that shares power, knowledge and resources – valuing every journalist, fostering equity in newsrooms and media, and helping produce impactful journalism.

Our programs and events help thousands of journalists find a way forward in an increasingly difficult industry. We know there's still work to do, and we need your financial help to keep going.

We’ve seen OpenNews community members rise through the ranks into leadership roles, bolstered by what they’ve learned from peers and networks established through our programs. That includes our staff and many others connected to our community, who have imbued our work with the empathy that shapes everything we do. We’re still fighting for a better future for news. We just need your help.

Your donation helps make our current programs and the next phase of this work possible. Recurring donations are especially meaningful because that's money we can count on as new threats to the future of journalism and democracy pop up daily.
