November started our fall fundraising and participation in #NewsMatch, a powerful collaborative fundraising movement to support independent journalism.

The good news is that YOU can help us continue to build a stronger, better-informed community!

Through Dec. 31st, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12x (or double your one-time donation), up to $1,000. In addition, Patagonia Regional Times has been selected to receive partner matching funds as part of our NewsMatch 2023 campaign. The Loud Hound Partner Fund is awarded to select newsrooms like the PRT, providing news about issues that impact our lives and support civic engagement. Loud Hound will match your donations as well, up to an additional $15,000!

We’re deeply appreciative of this recognition, which means that all contributions during the campaign period will be Triple-Matched. Every $1 donated will earn $3.

Our journalists work tirelessly to produce journalism you can count on, all year long. Can we count on you, too?

Will you support our nonprofit newsroom with a donation of any amount, or better yet, join The Press Core, a dedicated group of supporters who give a recurring monthly gift? Thank you for your support of the Patagonia Regional Times, a non-profit newsroom.
