Dear Readers,

In the 18 months since we launched the Needham Observer it’s become clear just how much you value having a trusted, fact-based source of local news. We want to keep that going and growing, covering the stories and issues that matter in our community.  

With your support we can take the Observer to the next level, expand our coverage and add new voices to our team to deepen our reporting. Right now we have that opportunity with our year-end matching campaign.

With support from the Institute for Nonprofit News and several generous community members, donations through the end of December will be matched until we reach $50,000. So by giving now your gift will make a big impact.

Many of you already have supported us and we are very grateful. But for those who have not yet become donors, we hope you will take advantage of this match to do so. 

You can DONATE here.

An ongoing monthly gift is especially helpful as it provides us a steady foundation for growth. And the full amount for the year will be matched. 

Local news is an essential part of an informed community, and as a nonprofit we rely on the community’s support to do this work. Please help us continue our free and accessible reporting on the people and topics that shape our town.

Thank you for supporting independent journalism and helping the Observer grow!

Peter, Fred, Jeanne and the Observer team
