Today is Giving Tuesday, a campaign that harnesses the power of individual generosity to enact transformative action in the world. It also marks the start of rabble’s winter fundraising campaign.
Each year, rabble’s audience gives so generously during our winter fundraiser, and we believe it’s because you know that progressive change happens –in part– because of independent news media like rabble.ca.
Why supporting indie news matters
As the managing editor of rabble.ca, I am proud to be part of an organization that is committed to sharing the progressive voices of workers, of underrepresented communities, and of the often-unsung heroes leading social change across the country. On our podcast and political panels, and in our columns and original news articles, rabble highlights not only the top stories of the day, but also the stories of hope.
It’s my opinion that, in times like these, we need those stories more than ever.
This year, we saw student activists at universities across the country (and internationally) come together in solidarity to join the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement.
We saw queer activists, 2SLGTBQIA+ organizations and teachers fight back against the political moves across provinces to take away trans rights.
We saw migrant workers, Amazon warehouse workers and student workers fight for their right to unionize spaces and demand better working conditions for all.
It’s been a scary year, for sure. But there’s been hope in every corner too.
Covering it all, rabble.ca has been there, speaking with people on the ground and amplifying the progressive reporting that rabble is known for.
We do this without a paywall or a subscription fee. Because we believe in media democracy; we believe that strong, independent media should be accessible to all. This can only happen with the support of readers like you.
This Giving Tuesday, support rabble.ca
Together, we have the power to create meaningful, progressive change across the country. Since 2001, we’ve proven: quality journalism can ignite transformative political action!
With the support from readers like you, rabble will continue sharing the stories and voices that matter most to Canadians.
This Giving Tuesday, at the launch of our winter fundraising campaign, help us ensure the future of independent, progressive journalism in Canada. Become a rabble rouser today by signing up as a monthly donor or gifting a one-time donation.
