Friends,

You can help slow the spread of misinformation before Election Day. With your support, the Poynter Institute will immediately expand our fact-checking and media literacy initiatives so that lies get called out, conspiracies get cut down, and the confusing and vicious swirl of political spin comes to a halt.

You have the power to put facts at the center of the debate for the next 40 days. Will you donate to Poynter today?

Thanks to continued generosity from Poynter Foundation Board members, you can instantly double your impact. Today is the last day that your $100 donation will be matched 100%.

With your support, you will help:

* Teach millions more first-time voters and senior citizens how to spot misinformation online

* Fact-check political pundits, candidates, advertisements and viral posts on social media every single day

* Hold journalists to the highest standard as they report on election results starting Nov. 3.

Protect yourself, your family and your community from the misinformation that pulls us apart. Facts matter, whether we’re talking about health, safety, civility or democracy. Donate to Poynter today because misinformation is dangerous — and together we can slow the spread.
