How You Can Help
Local journalism is a threatened species. Across the country, thousands of local media outlets have closed or sharply reduced their staffs. For the public this means less information about your local government and your community. Quality journalism shines a light on the dark corners and backrooms of government and explains how your leaders’ decisions and actions will affect you.
To do this, Cecil Public Media needs your support. Through our fiscal sponsor, the Institute for Nonprofit News ( INN.org ), we will gratefully receive donations. We are a very lean operation and the money you donate will go directly toward our primary mission of reporting the news in Cecil County. Just click the DONATE button on the cecil.tv web site.
And, between now and December 31st, we have an opportunity to make your donation go even further through NewsMatch, an industry-wide movement to sustain journalism through matching gifts on the local and national level. Since 2016 NewsMatch has raised over $150 million to keep nonprofit journalism like ours going strong.
Here’s how it works.
Starting now—through December 31st — NewsMatch will match your new monthly donations 12 times or double your one-time gift, up to $1,000.
Through NewsMatch, we can earn up to $10,000 in matching dollars. Just click the DONATE button on the cecil.tv web site to support Cecil Public Media, so we can afford to keep our county informed about the important issues that affect our day to day lives.
