Subject: Your gift keeps local news alive — and it will be matched!

Dear Friend of The Northeast News,

For more than 94 years, The Northeast News has been the voice of our community — telling the stories that connect neighbors, celebrate our diversity, and hold local institutions accountable. We do this work because we believe that informed communities are stronger communities.

But as a nonprofit newsroom, we depend on readers like you to make our reporting possible. That’s why we’re asking for your support during our end-of-year fundraising campaign.

From November 1 through December 31, every donation you make will be matched dollar for dollar through the NewsMatch program, a national initiative that supports independent, nonprofit journalism. That means your $25 donation becomes $50, your $100 becomes $200 — and your $1,000 contribution becomes a $2,000 investment in trusted, local news right here in the Historic Northeast.

Your tax-deductible gift helps us:

• Report on neighborhood issues that matter most to you.
  
• Highlight local artists, entrepreneurs, and community leaders.
  
• Provide a platform for voices that too often go unheard.
  
• Keep our stories free and accessible to everyone in our community.
  

Whether you can give $25, $100, or $1,000, every contribution makes a real difference — and now, thanks to NewsMatch, your impact is doubled.

You can donate securely at https://northeast-news.fundjournalism.org/donate/ or mail your contribution to:

Together, we can ensure that Northeast Kansas City continues to have a strong, independent voice telling its stories. Thank you for believing in community journalism — and for helping us continue to serve you.

With gratitude,

The Northeast News
