We’re taking a brief pause during what’s been a super-busy news week, and with plenty more to come with another week left in what’s been a very busy month.
It’s been a strong one from what our traffic numbers tell us, and the reader feedback we get. We keep hearing from many of you how important East Cobb News is for you, and we’re delighted to hear it.
With primary elections coming up, we’re preparing in-depth coverage about the candidates you’ll be choosing to represent you at the local level.
It’s part of what we do every day, and have done every day, since East Cobb News began publishing nearly nine years ago.
In April, we’ve really been knocking out exclusive, breaking coverage that has other outlets chasing us. Readers tip us off about what’s happening because they know we’re trustworthy, credible and accessible.
We’re absolutely reader focused, and East Cobb News asks for reader donations to help us to keep giving you the local news that you love.
But we would love to have the support of more of you than we do.
We’ve set up a safe, secure and easy online payment system via Press Patron, which helps local independent online with basic business expenses. They share our passion for local news and want to help small local news businesses like East Cobb News make a go of a tough media environment.
It’s not getting easier, and while East Cobb News is a thrifty operation, our business costs are going up.
We get our payout from Press Patron by the calendar month, and we’d like to close out April with a strong response from our readers. You’ve told us how much you value East Cobb News, and here’s your chance to show that support with a donation today.
Here are some suggested levels of support:
- $6/month or $60/year
- $12/month or $125/year
- $30/month or $300/year
- $50/month or $500/year
- Custom amount
- One-time donation
