Dear friends of InDepthNH.org,
It’s been almost three years since I started the New Hampshire Center for Public Interest Journalism and launched the daily nonprofit online news outlet InDepthNH.org. I thank you for your support. We can’t do it without you. And as the need for more unbiased, indepth, investigative and enterprise local news grows every day, we need you even more. Donate here, please.

Most of our writers still work for free or for very little considering their talent and experience. Not only do we need to get to a point where we can pay everyone, we also need to grow. New Hampshire needs full-time, well-paid, experienced journalists and fundraisers to keep it happening.
To do this right, our budget would be $750,000 a year and we haven’t even raised a tiny fraction of that. But we won’t stop. I need to step up fundraising and will soon be announcing a new volunteer effort to raise money through grants, major donors, advertising and events. We have one volunteer and she needs your help. email nancywestnews@gmail.com
