Why you can trust Investigate Midwest
Published:

Tuesday, March 25, 2025

Today is the last day of our inaugural membership campaign. We are so close to meeting our goal, with just 13 to go until we hit 100 dedicated members.

We deeply appreciate everyone in our audience. Those who have invested in us now also have some skin in the game.

Every donation makes a difference and helps build our member base. Be it a $60 one-time donation to sign up at our Field Reporter level, $21 a month as a Watchdog Advocate, or as a Guardian of the Press at $1,000 per year, each dollar counts.

You can learn more about our membership levels here – and the benefits that come with it.

However you choose to invest in us, you’re helping us carry on a legacy of rigorous reporting and safeguarding the values that have always guided our work.

With gratitude,

Erin Orr, Executive Director
Mary Ungs-Sogaard, Donor Relations Manager
