Support journalism and press freedom: Donate to NPC Journalism Institute’s year-end campaign

The National Press Club Journalism Institute has kicked off its end-of-year fundraising campaign that supports its press freedom and educational programming efforts. The Institute is close to its 2022 fundraising goal.

Journalists have provided essential information and added important context to the conversations that are guiding our communities. As journalists’ professional needs continue to evolve in 2022, the Institute has answered by: 

  • Producing free virtual professional development programs on topics including writing and editing, diversity, and inclusion, covering the midterms and misinformation, and more.  
  • Pressing to remove barriers to press freedom and providing direct support for journalists who are unjustly targeted for their work.
  • Publishing a daily industry-focused newsletter that provides top headlines, craft tips, leadership advice and resources. 
  • Facilitating a nonfiction writing group and community conversations about the industry. 

These initiatives are just a few highlights of the Institute’s efforts to connect Club members and the public to tools, training and networks that help journalists better serve their communities and democracy.
