Thank you for your donation and support of our Indigenous-led newsroom. I launched Native News Online in Feb. 2011 with the belief that everyone in Indian Country deserves equal access to news and commentary pertaining to them, their relatives and their communities. We have grown over the years, but our goal has always been to make sure that the news on our website is free — and we want to keep it that way, for all readers.  

That’s why we want to say thank you for your financial support. Your gift will allow us to continue publishing stories that make a difference to Native people, whether they live on or off the reservation. With your help, we’re will continue producing quality journalism and elevating Indigenous voices for years to come.  

If you know of others who would appreciate our approach to Native journalism, please feel free to share our site or encourage them to sign up for our free enewsletter, Native News Today

And please, feel free to contact me if you would like to share your opinion about what you're reading in Native News Online or if you know of stories in Indian Country that ought to be told.  The best way to reach me is at my email ([email protected]) or my mobile phone (616-299-7542).  

We appreciate your support. 

Megwetch,
