Dear Reader,

Tomorrow is #GivingNewsDay here at ProPublica, and because we’ve got two amazing incentives to help us hit our goal of 2,000 donors, I’m getting a head start and telling you about them today. 

First, thanks to an anonymous family, your gift will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $150,000 when you donate right now! Your donation will go twice as far to help us with the dozens of investigations we’ve got brewing all over the country. 

Second, we’ve got thank-you gifts! ProPublica swag is available only once a year, and that time is now. Donate any amount and we’ll send you a ProPublica laptop sticker. Donate $40 or more and we’ll send you a ProPublica tote bag, or donate $60 or more for a ProPublica T-shirt.  

Today, investigative journalism isn’t just important — it’s essential. At ProPublica, we remain unwavering in our mission to hold power accountable and expose corruption wherever it hides. Our in-depth reporting shines a light on the stories that matter most, but finding the truth is expensive and we can’t do it alone. Every breakthrough investigation is powered by readers like you. Your support will help uncover the facts — make a donation of any amount to drive our work forward.

The dollar-for-dollar match and thank-you gift offer are available only today and tomorrow. Don’t wait! Make your year-end donation to ProPublica right now and show your support for people-powered journalism. 

Thanks so much,  

Jill Shepherd
