We foster democracy every day.
Do you value our public-service journalism?
Dear Reader,
There’s a lot on the line today as Americans cast their votes, the results of which could impact all of us for years to come. The stakes have never felt higher.
This Election Day serves as a powerful reminder of why all of us at The Xylom come to work every day. Our nonprofit newsroom is built on the ideals of democracy. We know readers like you rely on our truth-seeking and transparent journalism — not only to help you make well-informed decisions at the polls but also to keep you civically engaged all year long.
You can also count on us to deliver election results and analysis after all the ballots are counted. Our reporters will not only cover the outcomes of Election Day, but we’ll explore how those outcomes might affect the future of our country and what’s next for environmental justice, public health, and climate solutions. These stories are only just taking shape.
This is crucial work and costly work, which is why we need your help today. Thanks to NewsMatch, a collaborative fundraising movement that supports public-service journalism like ours, you can make a contribution go four times as far as it usually would.
New donations to The Xylom are being matched up to $1,000 per individual and up to $21,150 in total—an amount that would make a huge difference in our ability to continue doing what we do, day in and day out.
A better-informed, more equitable America begins with you. Will you give us — and democracy — a vote of confidence by contributing what you can this Election Day?
Thank you for believing in journalism that strengthens our democracy.
With gratitude,
Alex Ip
Publisher and Editor,
