Our supporters - MLK50: Justice Through Journalism

MLK50: Justice Through Journalism follows the standards set by the Institute for Nonprofit News, including disclosing our largest donors. Those standards state:

We are committed to transparency in every aspect of funding our organization.

Accepting financial support does not mean we endorse donors or their products, services or opinions.

We accept gifts, grants and sponsorships from individuals, organizations and foundations to help with our general operations, coverage of specific topics, and special projects. Our news judgments are made independently – not based on or influenced by donors. We do not give supporters the right to assign, review or edit content.

We will make public all donors who give $5,000 or more per year.

As a nonprofit, we will avoid accepting donations from anonymous sources, and we will not accept donations from government entities, political parties, elected officials or candidates actively seeking public office. We will not accept donations from sources who present a conflict of interest with our work or compromise our independence.

The list below reflects gifts made over time. We appreciate all our donors, no matter what amount they are able to contribute because they help us carry on the legacy of our organization’s namesake. Click here to make your tax-deductible donation today.
