Our goal for this year’s giving campaign is $250,000. Here is what your gift can achieve:

$50 — Cover two complimentary subscriptions for key influencers to get the magazine.

$100 to $500 — Purchase the rights to a high-quality stock image.

$1,000 — A key threshold: at this level we can commission an additional original illustration. And major foundations pay attention to how many gifts we get at this size.

$5,000 to $25,000 — Many individuals believe that they have to be billionaires to make any serious impact on American media. But gifts in this range are a critical vehicle for success for an organization of our size. We currently enjoy around a dozen annual gifts at this level; doubling that number would be transformative, enabling us to boost author fees, commission important investigative work, pay critical staff, and create a multiplier effect by pitching our current foundation backers on increasing their giving level.

$50,000 and up — A gift at this level can change the direction of our project. Please get in touch with us if you would like to learn more about how.
