2020 has been a tough year—COVID, an unrelenting national election and a fragile economy. For Underscore, it has brought into sharp relief the importance of reporting with a justice lens, amplifying the voices of those who are often underserved by mainstream media.
With so much at stake, the importance of local, informative and trustworthy news cannot be understated.
Through December 31, 2020, your donation will be matched 3:1 thanks to
NewsMatch, The Collins Foundation and Jonathan Logan Family Foundation.
Your investment will help us do our work and, in partnership with other media, share it without charge throughout Oregon and beyond. This is how we will know each other, especially in this year of physical distancing.
All donations will directly support the reporters and photojournalists for Underscore who deliver news and information to you.
Please consider making a gift to Underscore. Right now, every dollar you give is matched. Whether you can give $5, $10, $50 or more, your donation counts to help us meet our year-end fundraising goals. Your donation is essential to help us grow and to support original, local reporting.
“Traditional media have always had blindspots in their coverage. Nonprofit journalism shops offer a solution. Not only can we fund reporting to fill the gaps left as traditional outlets contract, we can drive coverage and force other news organizations to pay attention to communities they've long ignored." – Jason Buch, Managing Editor
