Can you pitch in a few bucks to help fund Mother Jones' investigative journalism? We're a nonprofit (so it's tax-deductible), and reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget.

We’re not shy about asking you to help pay for the journalism you rely on—especially now. We have until December 31 to raise $400,000 to keep our nonprofit newsroom running at full strength into 2026. We’re off to a good start, but to make our goal we need contributions from readers who have never given before—and from steadfast donors who can give again. Every gift matters.
