How to get involved

There are many ways to help us support local news in Northern Michigan, whether you’re a journalist or a passionate community member, or interested in supporting our work financially.

I’d like to support local news with a financial gift 

Strong information sources cost money. As the financial model for community information has changed in recent years, charitable donations are becoming the backbone of local news ecosystems across the country. Press Forward Northern Michigan offers financial support for existing news outlets and seeks to seed new models to fill in local gaps.

I’m a local journalist

We are building a community of journalists across our region. We regularly offer training sessions, bring in speakers and organize informal gatherings, as we seek to support each other in our work.

Get on the list!
