On Nov. 1, NewsMatch started its fourth annual campaign.
The campaign drives donations to nonprofit newsrooms
across the U.S.
and has helped to raise more than $14.8 million since 2016, according to the
organization.
The program was created by the John S. and
James L. Knight Foundation in 2016. NewsMatch also gets support from the
Democracy Fund, Facebook Journalism Project, Ethics and Excellence in
Journalism Foundation, Jonathan Logan Family Foundation, Natasha and Dirk Ziff,
Present Progressive Fund at Schwab Charitable and REI Co-op, in partnership
with The Miami Foundation, the Institute for Nonprofit News and the News
Revenue Hub.
The campaign will match up to $20,000 in
individual donations to almost 200 newsrooms nationwide, the most that have
ever participated, while helping newsrooms continue to develop their own fundraising
capacity and long-term financial stability, according to NewsMatch. Donors will
be able to contribute between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31, 2019, at NewsMatch.org.
