From the bottom of our hearts: Thank you
We’re thrilled to kick off 2024 with a bit of good news: Thanks to readers like you who donated to Watershed Voice, we raised at least* $12,208 during our year-end campaign.
*Due to donation multipliers and the upcoming reporting/verification process the total amount raised could end up being higher than what is listed here.
We’re thrilled to kick off 2024 with a bit of good news: Thanks to readers like you who donated to Watershed Voice, we raised at least* $12,208 during our year-end campaign! And, thanks to our partnership with NewsMatch, those funds will be doubled, which sets us up well for 2024. By investing in us, you showed that what we do has value, and we promise not to let you down.
We know this type of reporting helps power a better-informed democracy — during an election year and beyond — and we’re glad you do, too. Thank you for supporting our local journalism, which makes southwest Michigan a better place to live.
The staff of Watershed Voice will be taking a well-earned rest after the busy fundraising of the last two months. We’ll get back to work on Monday, January 22.
Thank you, as always, for your commitment and support.
With gratitude,
Alek Haak-Frost
Executive Editor and Publisher
