Donate Today to Keep Us Strong in 2021
This year’s Giving Tuesday is serving as the kickoff for our End of the Year fundraising drive for all the Streetsblog sites in California. Streetsblog California raises about half of its annual revenue through small donations from our readers. This year, we cancelled many of our fundraising events because of COVID 19, but are hoping to make up the difference in the next month and raise $50,000 from across the state of California to support Streetsblog California, Streetsblog Los Angeles, and Streetsblog San Francisco.
