What’s accountability worth in 2020? We need your help to keep this essential service available to all.
As we make our way into a new decade filled with uncertainty, our goals at Mississippi Today remain the same: to make sure the news that matters most stays free and accessible to all Mississippians.
At a time when most newsrooms are cutting staff, this is a daunting task. That’s why we’re calling on everyone in the Mississippi who values this type of work to help fund it. Do you value transparency? Access to information? Freedom of the press?
If you do, will you do your part and invest in Mississippi Today?
Our spring membership campaign runs through May 31. Please give generously today.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my support?
Mississippi Today is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) digital news source that relies on financial support from our readers. Our membership program unites readers from different backgrounds who together form the backbone of Mississippi Today.
I get your newsletter. Am I a member too?
Not necessarily. Subscribers receive one of our newsletters in their email inbox and members are readers who donate to our newsroom. While most members are subscribers, not all subscribers are members.
However, we find that subscribers often choose to become members. We know that subscribers value our work; but, after engaging with us, they often become invested in our mission as well. Learn more about our members.
How can I renew my membership?
Recurring memberships automatically renew on a monthly or yearly basis. If you need to update your billing information, or your membership is up for renewal soon, please contact memberships@mississippitoday.org.
Can I send a donation by mail?
