Press Forward awarded $20 million in grants to 205 small local newsrooms, aiming to inject at least $500 million into local news over five years.
The grants provide unrestricted support, primarily $100,000 over two years, to newsrooms with budgets under $1 million, significantly benefiting small organizations.
The first round of funding met overwhelming demand, with 931 applications received; the coalition is on track to invest over $100 million by 2024.
Highlights of the grantees reveal a diverse range of local news outlets, from Alaska's oldest newspaper to a local Ethiopian publication in Washington, D.C.
