Support East Cobb News during our fall fundraising drive!

East Cobb News fundraising drive

It’s been feeling like fall for a couple weeks now, but as we launch our fall fundraising drive autumn definitely is in the air!

It’s windy and only in the high 50s, on the first day of our effort to get readers to consider supporting East Cobb News!

We’ll be coming to you through the end of the month from the many places we visit in the community—not just East Cobb Park, above, where we took a lunch break—but also from places where we cover stories and meet with local business owners.

The video below comes to you from the new Eastvalley Elementary School on Holt Road, which had a formal ribbon-cutting this morning.

As we did earlier this summer, when we marked our 6th anniversary, the East Cobb News “6 for 6” campaign is asking readers to consider what they value about the truly authentic local news and information they get, and to contribute accordingly.

We’re suggesting $6 a month on a recurring monthly basis, but you can give whatever you like—monthly, annually or on a one-time basis.

It’s like a public radio/TV pledge drive that you may be familiar with—and your contribution goes toward powering the work we do at East Cobb News to provide first-rate coverage of this community.

Our payment platform is hosted by Press Patron, which makes it easy to support independent local journalism. Several dozen publishers like East Cobb News are powered by this platform, and we’re proud to be a part of their community.

The Press Patron platform is safe and secure, and is connected with the prominent Stripe online payment system.
