Hello!

For the last few weeks, you’ve heard how much The Hechinger Report needs your support. Paying for articles you can get for free might seem unnecessary, but when you pitch in $25 or $50, it helps sustain our newsroom, allowing our reporters to investigate tips, gather data, and visit schools nationwide. And, just as important, reader support demonstrates that our journalism is valued by those who we aim to serve. That’s why those readers who make donations are supporting a vital public service for teachers, students and families.

Ask yourself this:

Is it essential to stay informed about what’s happening in schools?
Has a Hechinger article helped you better understand a complex issue?
Do we shine a light on important issues that mainstream media often overlooks?
Does our reporting help you professionally?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you have something in common with our existing Hechinger members. Will you make a donation for the journalism you trust?

A Hechinger Report member is anyone who makes a financial contribution of any amount to our nonprofit newsroom. Your donation will make you a member for one year and will give you access to members-only content, from a monthly behind the scenes newsletter to primers on essential ed topics.

Thank you for considering this.
