#GivingNewsDay with Newsmatch

Why you can trust Investigate Midwest
Donate Now
Published:

Dec. 3, 2024

As of 5 p.m., we need $700 more to raise $1,500 today!

This will be doubled through the NewsMatch program.

Your support of our work — holding accountable big agribusiness and industrial agriculture entities for the negative impacts they have — helps fuel our nonprofit, independent newsroom.

Your dollars support our ability to pay for records requests, travel for reporters to interview people directly affected by these issues, and resources to analyze data that deepen our investigative reporting — just to name a few daily essentials.

If you get this message and it's past GivingNewsDay, don't worry: Your donation will still be doubled -- thanks to NewsMatch, a program that matches dollar-for-dollar charitable investments by individuals up to $1,000 through Dec. 31.

Another way to take part in NewsMatch is to give on a monthly, recurring basis. NewsMatch will double the entire year's gift if you are new to giving monthly — so a $10 monthly donation becomes $240 total. Already a monthly donor? If you increase that amount, those additional funds will be matched.

We appreciate any amount you give, and any time you read or share our work.
Thank you for helping make #GivingNewsDay 2024 a success by investing in news that's for people, not for profit.

With gratitude,

Erin Orr, Executive Director
