Why you can trust Investigate Midwest

Tuesday, Nov. 28, 2023, afternoon update

Dear friends of Investigate Midwest,

TODAY’S THE DAY!

We kicked off Giving Tuesday (aka Giving NewsDay) with a goal to raise $2,000 in one day, a part of our year-end campaign. We’re so grateful for the $650+ donations that have come in already.

Every dollar raised today has the potential to be tripled to support the work of covering industrial agriculture with data-driven reporting by our investigative journalists. This means a $10 becomes $30.

How does that happen?

  • First, Investigate Midwest is part of NewsMatch, a national effort to support nonprofit journalism that will match individual donations up to $13,000 total.
  • Second, we received a $10,000 matching grant from The Joyce Foundation.

That means what you give has triple the impact to help us as we support our journalists!

Can you help us get closer to our goal today?

With gratitude,

Mary Ungs-Sogaard, Donor Relations Manager

P.S. Don't keep #GivingNewsDay all to yourself. Celebrate with friends and colleagues by helping us spread the word and forwarding this email or sharing on social media.


Investigate Midwest is an independent, nonprofit newsroom. Our mission is to serve the public as a watchdog over influential corporations and institutions through in-depth and data-driven investigative journalism.
