Dear Reader,

It’s true – Giving Tuesday (or as we like to call it, Giving News Day) is here again. And, on the heels of last week’s Thanksgiving holiday, we’re so grateful for the opportunity to spotlight Hechinger’s education journalism efforts.

Our issue-based, investigative, and truth-seeking reporting is all in service of our readers. We are sustained by the feedback we receive on how our reporting is making a difference and why it’s so important. Here are a few comments made by long-time readers but first-time donors:

“You explore problems and solutions in education that larger papers don’t address.” – Elizabeth, Berkeley, CA

“I’m an educator, mother of a toddler and passionate about improving the pay and access to quality education.” – Staci, Poway, CA

"Hechinger Report continues to set the bar for what high-quality reporting looks like. Thank you for all your good work." – Leah, Lebanon, NH

“I've been reading the stories you write; I find them fair with facts and it seems they don’t bias one way or another, which is refreshing in today’s right/left world. I especially like the work on rural ed. – Brad, Chicago, IL

And while hearing from our readers is incredibly rewarding, it doesn’t pay for our reporting – not the travel nor the editing or the production that’s required to produce our award-winning (and free to read) journalism.

So what does help? Donations from readers like you. (In fact, the folks quoted above made their first gift to Hechinger this year.) Will you join them in becoming a supporting member of The Hechinger Report? We really hope your answer is yes. And if it is, we need your help — we are aiming to raise $5,000 by day’s end.

Please consider a donation ([link removed]) today in honor of #GivingNewsDay.
Support reporting that's for the people, with the people.
YES, I'll donate to #GivingNewsDay! ([link removed])
With gratitude,
Liz
Editor in Chief, The Hechinger Report
