Central Current is a nonprofit news outlet, which means we rely on donors and sponsors to help keep our journalists out in the field. Every gift is tax deductible and helps us provide our newsroom with the staffing, supplies, and resources necessary to offer our readers accurate, up-to-date reporting.
We are grateful to the individuals and organizations who support our work.
Our editorial operations are separate from our fundraising and business operations. Acceptance of a donation does not indicate support for the donor’s products, services or opinions.

Our Sponsors
Central Current’s sponsors are an important pillar of support for our growing newsroom. All revenue earned from sponsorships goes towards general operating expenses and does not impact which stories we cover or how we cover them.
