Join the Patron Circle: email jennifer@guerrilla.news or message us. Patron gifts are tax-deductible except for the good-faith value of patron benefits, which every receipt lists. The newsroom decides what we cover; credits and nominations never buy a story or its findings. Credits appear only with your permission.
Prefer to give once?
Use the app already on your phone. Any amount helps.
Members get an emailed receipt after every payment that shows the deductible amount. For a receipt for a Venmo or Cash App gift, message us with the date and amount.
Where your donation goes
Requests, copy fees and the follow-up it takes to pry records loose from agencies that stall.
Filing fees and transcripts when officials break open-meetings and open-records law.
Fuel, lodging and gear to put cameras inside meetings in all 77 counties.
Editing, music and production that turn a records request into a story people watch.
Questions
Is my donation tax-deductible?
Guerrilla News is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit newsroom. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Members receive Inner Circle access and other benefits. Your receipt shows the good-faith estimate of their value; the deductible amount is your gift minus that value.
Can I cancel or change my donation?
Yes, any time, in one click from your account. No calls, no forms.
Does a donation influence what you cover?
No. Donors fund the newsroom, not the findings. Nobody buys a story, a slant or silence.
Can I give another way?
Yes. Send a one-time gift through Venmo or Cash App using the buttons at the top of this page (PayPal is coming soon), or give by check, donor-advised fund grant or employer match. Message us for details.
Is my name public?
Only if you choose. We never sell or share donor information.
