It’s the last day of our spring member drive, and I’ll be blunt: we still have a long way to go to meet our $15,000 goal by midnight.

I get how easy it is to say that you’ll donate later, but we need your help now.

2024 is a critical election year, and nonprofit, nonpartisan journalism is essential to keeping voters informed. MinnPost is paywall-free to make sure everyone has access to this crucial news coverage, and we’re asking you to give now to help us stay this way. Take action and make a donation to MinnPost today.

When you give, you’ll be joining a group of like-minded members that support independent Minnesota news. Here’s what we’ve heard from some members about why they chose to donate to MinnPost this week:

“I need local independent press to round out my media diet.” — David, St. Paul

“I get a good look at some stories that aren’t necessarily covered by other media.” — Marie, Plymouth

“We need local journalism! Your reporters do a great job.” — Adele, St. Louis Park

“I support the truth, and free news.” — Kristin, Cloquet

What’s your reason why? I can’t wait to hear it!

P.S. It takes donations of ALL sizes to help us reach our goal. $25, $50, $400 — choose whatever amount works for you. We can only reach our goals when our community of readers come together. Join us today.
