Donor List

The Richmonder believes in providing transparency about how we are funded.

We do not accept anonymous donations. We will list all of our donors, large and small. Our intention is that no donor will have any more influence on what we cover and how we report it than any other member of the community. If we write about a donor who has contributed $5,000 or more, we disclose this in the story.

A list of all contributors is below. We want to extend a particular thank-you to our founding donors, who helped get us off the ground. Any person, company or organization that gives Dec. 31, 2024 will be considered a founding donor.

The Richmonder is recognized as a 501(c)(3) and all donations to the Richmonder are deductible on federal taxes to the full extent of the law. (Donor list below was updated 11/96/2024)
