The Rapidian has some great incentives to encourage YOU to become a Rapidian Sustaining Donor! Don't miss out.

08/19/2026

The Rapidian’s Summer Fund Drive is officially underway!

From now through Sunday, Aug. 23, we’re working to raise $10,000 to support community-powered local journalism in Grand Rapids & donations made during the fund drive will be matched up to $5,000 thanks to City Bureau and INN NewsMatch.

Your support helps The Rapidian train and pay Grand Rapids residents to report on their communities, cover public meetings through Grand Rapids Documenters, and make important local information more accessible to everyone.

That means your gift this week goes even further. 🧡

Help us reach our goal and keep community-powered journalism growing in Grand Rapids. Donate today at the link in our bio or therapidian.org/donate

And stay tuned all week as we share more about the people and work your donations support!
