We know working at the FreeP is a *big* time commitment. It’s also an invaluable experience. To make our newsroom more accessible for all BU students, we’re building a fund to help our editors cover basic but critical expenses. Maybe that’s an Uber ride home in bad weather, or late-night takeout when the dining halls are closed.
We’re calling it the Editors’ Equity Fund. And we need your help.
Like so many newsrooms across the country, the pandemic has taken an unprecedented cut from our main source of revenue: advertising. Without financial support from our community, we’ll struggle not just to build this fund, but also to continue the day-to-day operations of our newsroom. Your donation will go directly to making the FreeP a more accessible place to work for years to come.
Please consider supporting our newsroom today.
