We cannot afford to leave journalism — an essential part of our beloved communities — in the hands of absentee corporate owners, hedge funds and special interest billionaires, many of whom have spent the last two decades hollowing out our local news institutions.

Spotlight PA is taking a bold new path and for a limited time, your support will be DOUBLED.

We are independent, with no corporate interests or profit motives. We are strictly nonpartisan, with no political agenda, no policy preferences and no opinion content. And we are a nonprofit, which allows us to offer all of our journalism for free, thanks to the generosity of thousands of people across Pennsylvania.

Our talented journalists produce stories you won't find anywhere else. They track our hard-earned taxpayer dollars, investigate high-impact policy decisions, and hold our elected officials accountable. This reporting leads to real and substantive change for the better.

Your support of Spotlight PA allows us to continue this urgent work and mission to ensure everyone in Pennsylvania has access to trusted, high-quality journalism that is unique, relevant, insightful and inspiring. If you can, please consider making a one-time gift to Spotlight PA, or better yet, support us each month with a recurring donation so we can grow and build for the future.

For a limited time, all gifts will be DOUBLED in honor of Independence Day.

Thank you very much.

Christopher Baxter, CEO and President, Spotlight PA
