What is #newsCOneeds?

You rely on local news and information every day—to stay connected, make decisions for your family, and hold local leaders accountable. It is an essential part of a strong community, and now, you have the power to protect it. Your gift to the 2025 #newsCOneeds campaign is a direct investment in a stronger, better-informed Colorado. Here’s how your support goes even further: From November 1 to December 31 , your donation helps one of 38 local newsrooms unlock a share of a $175,000 incentive pool. You are not just giving a gift; you are multiplying its impact across the state, ensuring that fact-based, independent information remains a resource for everyone. Your support keeps your community informed. Thank you for being a part of this vital work.
