The News-Letter needs your support!
Since 1896 The Johns Hopkins News-Letter has reported, informed and — we hope — entertained the Hopkins and wider Baltimore community by providing a platform for student and community voices.
Now, as one of the nation’s oldest weekly student-run and editorially and financially independent newspapers, we need your help. Student papers across the nation are struggling with the financial burden of print, and many have subsequently been forced into solely publishing their content online. While we acknowledge that our online readership is larger than ever, we know that right now, The News-Letter also belongs in print.
Our print issues allow us to guide your experience of reading the paper and help us to reach an otherwise inaccessible readership while serving as a meaningful, permanent historical record for the Hopkins community. And there’s nothing better than the experience of sitting down with a cup of coffee and a newspaper in your hand.
Any donation helps. Whether it’s the price of that cup of coffee or donating $100 and seeing your name in print, we thank you for supporting The News-Letter.
