We know this is a time of year when many people choose to support causes that matter to them. At Vox, our Future Perfect team has a whole series of stories about the best ways to give away money this season.
But I wanted to write today with a more direct ask: for you to consider supporting independent journalism this Giving Tuesday. In a time when truth feels harder to find, our mission at Vox has never been more urgent.
We’re here to make sense of the world — to explain the stories that matter and show you the larger stakes of events happening in the world. Whether it’s reporting on Donald Trump’s plans for his second term, breaking down complex issues like the rise in gun ownership, or highlighting the innovators tackling some of the most pressing issues, our goal is clear: to help you understand the world around you, so that we can all help shape the future.
But that work isn’t easy. It requires resources, dedication, and independence. And that’s where you come in.
To create high-quality journalism that doesn’t bow to outside interests, we rely on the support of people like you who believe in the power of journalism to make a difference. By becoming a Vox Member, you’re helping us continue this critical work — and you’re helping us bring you the stories that no one else is covering.
This Giving Tuesday, we ask you to support the journalism you believe in. Your support ensures that we can keep doing the work that explains and empowers.
