What our readers are saying
In the past year, more than 250 people have donated to support the local journalism we produce every weekday at the Henrico Citizen. Why? Here’s what some of them had to say, in their own words:
“I believe strongly in newspapers/journalism/reporting, especially independent
and local reporting.”
“Legitimate journalists are the lifeblood of this country!”
“I enjoy the information that Henrico Citizen sends out.
It is one of the best sources to find out what is going on in the county.”
“Journalism has to be directly supported; the ad model's dead. And the Citizen is awesome!”
“I have been reading the excellent coverage by your outstanding Henrico Citizen staff. . . As always, Henrico Citizen is trusted and respected for your stellar work in keeping the community informed.”
“We need local news coverage. Henrico Citizen is very helpful to me.”
“I appreciate the good reporting and info provided by Henrico Citizen!”
“I support non-biased local reporting.”
“I value the local reporting of the Henrico Citizen and its dedication
to education reporting.”
“I really enjoy your local reporting and would like to help support it.”
“Local journalism is important and the Henrico Citizen does great work.”
“I value all of your hard work so much.”
“Love the Citizen. . . Appreciate what y’all do. Please keep it up.”
“You do a great (and thankless) job. Keep doing it.”
“I started following you a couple months ago on Twitter and it has renewed my reading of the Henrico Citizen. Just wanted to commend you on the great reporting job you have been doing about local politics, news, and ongoings. Much needed and you have done it well!”
If you’ve found value in our work – and gained knowledge from our coverage – will you consider joining them and making a contribution to support our efforts? Local journalism matters – and it can help connect a community.
We believe a smarter Henrico is a better Henrico. We would be grateful for your support us as we continue to do this important work.
Yours in community,
Tom Lappas, publisher
