Minnesota Star Tribune Local News Fund

Minnesota Local News Giving Day is April 30. Newsrooms across the state are coming together to ask for your support in telling the next story that matters to Minnesotans. 

This year has been a powerful reminder of how much we rely on trusted local news. In moments of crisis and in the everyday stories that shape our communities, journalists across Minnesota have shown up to provide clarity, context, and connection when it matters most. 

You’ve seen that work. You’ve relied on it. 

Local journalism helps us understand our communities, strengthens civic engagement, and keeps us connected to one another. That kind of work is sustained by people who value it. 

By readers like you. 

Thank you for supporting local news in Minnesota

Our Mission: To build a better Minnesota by connecting people with the ideas and stories that strengthen our communities.
