"This is why Oaklandside 510 matters. We're reaching people who want to be more informed about Oakland but can't always fit traditional news into their lives. Now they're listening while commuting, while walking, while doing dishes - and actually engaging with local journalism. We want to keep Oaklandside 510 going. To put out weekly episodes for another six months, we need to raise $15,000."
"Your support will help fund our freelance producer, audio equipment, and recording space so we can deliver news to all of Oakland. Whether you give $10 a month, $25 a month, or $100 all at once, every dollar gets us closer to keeping the 510 alive. Will you support Oaklandside 510 today with a tax-deductible gift to help us produce high-quality Oakland news in a new format?"
"Your support won't just keep the podcast going. It supports all of The Oaklandside's work: the daily reporting you read online, the investigations that hold power accountable, and the community coverage that helps you understand your neighbors and your city. $15,000. That's our goal. That's what it takes to keep bringing Oakland's news and stories to more people in a great new way."
Oaklandside 510's first nine episodes have been downloaded nearly 9,000 times, demonstrating strong audience interest. Listeners report using the podcast format to engage with local news while commuting, walking, and doing household tasks, and some have sought out articles mentioned on episodes. The podcast reaches people who cannot fit traditional news reading into busy lives. Continued weekly episodes for six months require $15,000. Funds will pay a freelance producer, audio equipment, and recording space. Donation options include $10 monthly, $25 monthly, or one-time $100 contributions. Sustaining the podcast also supports daily reporting, investigations, and community coverage.
