Thank you, Friends

Thanks for helping us get to the goal! Let’s keep it going!

In August, we launched Friends of the Reporter as a way for individuals and businesses to support independent journalism every month. The Santa Fe community came through with a stellar performance, helping us get to our $20,000 goal for 2019 in less than three months.

Ongoing contributions pay for reporters, photographers, editors, critics, artists, graphic designers and all the components of our weekly newspaper and daily website. We couldn't do it without you!

Friends donors get discounts to SFR merch, monthly prize giveaways, tickets to local events and other free and discounted stuff. Get your name on the list at www.sfreporter.com/friends.
