"You, our community of readers, provide three-quarters of our operating revenue through your subscriptions and donations. This organization would literally not exist without you. That's why our Community Pages, which have a new look in this issue, are in the middle of the magazine: You are literally the heart of this organization."
"The nonprofit part refers to our status with the IRS - HCN is registered under section 501(c)3 of the federal tax code. That means that your donations are tax-exempt, and that we're governed by a volunteer board of directors who work with the senior management team to ensure that the business is responsibly managed and financially sound."
"Our board members serve three-year terms, with a limit of three consecutive terms. And so we bring in new members regularly, seeking out folks with a strong commitment to our mission, the skills necessary for running a nonprofit, and identities and backgrounds that reflect the diversity of the West."
High Country News operates as a reader-supported nonprofit registered under IRS section 501(c)3, with readers providing three-quarters of operating revenue through subscriptions and donations. The organization is governed by a volunteer board of directors working with senior management to ensure responsible and financially sound operations. Board members serve three-year terms with a maximum of three consecutive terms, allowing for regular introduction of new members. The organization actively seeks board candidates with commitment to its mission, nonprofit management skills, and diverse identities and backgrounds reflecting the American West. In January, four new board members joined, including Tyrone Beason, who grew up in Kentucky, worked on his grandfather's farm, and became an accomplished journalist covering environmental and social justice issues.
