This year, The Hechinger Report kept you informed about how the two leading presidential candidates view education, from cradle to career, and what their potential administrations would prioritize. Now that the dust has settled on this election, Hechinger remains committed to following and breaking down the impact of Trump administration policies.

And our mission has not deviated: We provide insights into schools and the people who walk their halls, and showcase solutions for how to improve students’ lives. 

Today’s the kickoff of our biggest fundraiser of the year, and we need your support. Starting now — through December 31 — we need to raise $60,000. 

To jumpstart our campaign, the first $8,000 in gifts will be doubled.

Journalism like ours stands as a pillar to schools and the ideals of our democratic society, but we can’t do it without support. Please help us launch this campaign with a strong start — give what you can to bolster our vital reporting efforts. 

This is your moment to make a gift and have it go double the distance.
