Thank you for making our work possible

Thank you for investing in local nonprofit journalism, and showing us that our work has value during our year-end NewsMatch campaign.

Watershed Voice was able to raise *at least $9,802 during our year-end fundraising campaign, thanks to your generosity. Our partnership with NewsMatch means those funds will be doubled in a few months time, allowing us to kick off 2025 on a positive note.

Thank you for investing in local nonprofit journalism, and showing us that our work has value. We look forward to producing more quality work after our three-week publishing pause. Starting Monday, January 6 we’ll be giving our staff much needed rest after a long year, and two busy months of fundraising.

We will resume publishing on Monday, January 27.

My best,
Alek Haak-Frost
Executive Editor & Publisher

*Due to donation multipliers and the upcoming reporting/verification process the total amount raised could end up being higher than what is listed here.
