For more than 100 years, the Miami Herald / el Nuevo Herald has enriched South Florida’s democracy and served our local community. We connect our diverse communities through our websites, newsletters, video and the social media platforms.

The business fundamentals that long supported journalism have shifted, hampering our ability to provide the crucial, factual news on which we all rely. We know that our community needs more news, investigations and verified reporting than we now can provide.

To meet that need, we are partnering with individuals, foundations and corporations to expand coverage. The newsroom retains editorial control of all content.

Tax-deductible contributions to the Miami Herald Impact Journalism Fund at the Miami Foundation currently support two investigative reporting fellows, two climate reporters, a faith reporter and an arts reporter.

Our next goal: a highly skilled journalist to focus exclusively on the region’s affordability crisis and strategies for increasing economic opportunity for all.

Please help us better serve our community with a tax-deductible gift to the Miami Herald Impact Journalism Fund. Donations of any size help us increase our impact.

Our track record

For 137 years, The Charlotte Observer has enriched our democracy and served our local community. The Observer’s reporting has a direct impact on our community. Our coverage on the increasingly common abuse of fentanyl has led to community organizers and schools adding NARCAN to AED boxes in Charlotte-Mecklenburg high school hallways. In the past year, investigative reporter Ames Alexander went in depth to uncover the poor health care of various nursing homes in Charlotte and North Carolina that led to lawmakers extending Medicaid rate increases for nursing homes – increases that had previously been set to expire.

Our ability to provide the independent factual news on which we all rely has been hampered by the shift in  proliferation of content sources. We know that our community needs more news, investigations and verified reporting that we now can provide.

To meet that need, we are partnering with individuals, foundations and corporations to expand coverage. The newsroom retains editorial control of all content.
