DEADLINE: American Journalism Project 2021 Grants

The American Journalism Project is inviting letters of inquiry this quarter from national, topical and regional (extending beyond one state) nonprofit news organizations that are planning to grow their investments in original local journalism and demonstrate a clear commitment to serving local audiences. We will support organizations that have credible paths to unlocking new, incremental funding sources for local news and will grow their local news strategies across numerous geographies.

We aim to focus on grants to place-based local news organizations in the fall with the aim of announcing grantees toward the end of the year. You may submit a letter of inquiry for a grant whenever you are ready, but to be considered for a grant by the end of 2021, please submit your form by Monday, July 12, 2021.
