Dear Subscriber,


This is our regular quarterly financial disclosure covering cash support from foundations and individuals for the three-month period ending Dec. 31, 2019.


Our policy is to disclose the identity of any individual donor giving $1,000 or more. We also disclose the total amount, average amount and number of individual donations.


In 2015, Inside Philanthropy praised our disclosure policy ([link removed]) for “exemplifying nonprofit transparency.”


In addition to the sums reported here, FactCheck.org receives in-kind support from the Annenberg Public Policy Center including some infrastructure costs as well as supervisory, technical, and administrative support from APPC faculty and staff. We do not attempt to assign a dollar value to these in-kind services, which are funded from the APPC’s own resources.


The amount of individual donations this quarter was $64,697, reflecting our annual year-end fundraising drive. We are grateful for your support.


We began accepting donations from individual members of the public in 2010, and the additional funds have helped to extend the life of FactCheck.org.


If you would like to make a contribution, we accept credit card donations through our “Donate” page ([link removed]) . If you prefer to give by check, you can send to:


FactCheck.org
Annenberg Public Policy Center
202 S. 36th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19104-3806


We do not seek and have never accepted, directly or indirectly, any funds from unions, partisan organizations or advocacy groups. We do not accept funds from corporations with the exception of Facebook, which provides funding as part of Facebook’s initiative to combat the spread of fake news.


Please consider a donation today.


Sincerely,


Eugene Kiely

Director, FactCheck.org
