Why support local grassroots media? 

The media landscape is increasingly dominated by large corporate interests, leaving little room for diverse, localized reporting. Our grassroots model allows us to stay free from commercial pressures and focus on stories that matter to our community. However, as an independent organization, we rely on donations and grants to sustain our work. Your financial support will enable us to:

• Expand our reporting capabilities: With funding, we can hire more local journalists and provide them with the tools they need to cover critical issues thoroughly.

• Invest in training and development: We teach media activism to individuals from our local DC communities most impacted by white supremacy, patriarchy and the harmful extremes of capitalism.

• Enhance community engagement: We believe that journalism should be a two-way street. Your support will allow us to host more workshops, media literacy classes, and online discussions that bring the community together.

• Increase our reach: Funding will help us maintain our website, improve our online presence, and make our content more accessible to diverse audiences through multiple platforms.

Your Impact

By supporting Grassroots DC, you are not just funding journalism—you are investing in the empowerment of our community. Your donation will help keep the public informed, encourage civic engagement, and ensure that marginalized voices are heard. This is a critical time for local media, and your partnership can make a lasting impact.
