Dear Reader,

We won’t bury the lede — we are thrilled to announce that all one-time gifts up to $1,000 are now TRIPLED!

This amazing opportunity is made possible through the generous support of the Loud Hound Foundation, as well as the Wyncote Foundation and a family foundation in Pittsburgh. If you thought you might make a gift, now’s the time — this is the furthest your donation is going to go this year. ([link removed])

Now here’s the more sobering news: We’re hearing from our industry colleagues that people are giving less to journalism this year across the board. We’re not exempt from this trend — we currently have a $13,700 gap in our fundraising that we must close before Dec. 31 to stay on track and keep bringing you the reporting we believe Pittsburgh deserves.

The hard truth is that local journalism outlets like ours disappear all the time. It’s a difficult industry, especially if you’re in the business of increasing accountability and holding power to account. Plenty of worthy news sources, staffed by people who deeply care about bringing quality news to the public, are forced to downsize or close up shop when they can’t locate enough resources to cover costs.

We want to keep bringing you the news you value. We hear from readers all the time that what we publish is essential and cannot be found anywhere else. And while it’s part of our mission to make our stories available to the public without a paywall, we can’t continue to produce those stories if we don’t have the support of our community, from our casual readers on up.

The opportunity to have your gift tripled, or to have your new recurring gift matched x12, ends in only 20 days. Please take advantage of this incredible opportunity to make your support go even further.

TRIPLE my gift today! ([link removed])

From all of us at PublicSource, thank you.
