Community minded. Member supported.

As a non-profit organization, MinnPost relies on the generous contributions of our members to be able to report on politics, the environment, health, education, regional news and much more.

MinnPost is registered with the IRS as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donations to MinnPost are fully tax-deductible.

Our total donor base includes more than 3,400 people. About 20% have already chosen to become sustaining members. We encourage all supporters to become sustainers and here’s why:

MinnPost's sustaining members provide a dependable, ongoing source of funding while reducing administrative costs. That makes every contribution a full investment in the unique and outstanding news coverage you expect and deserve. Your contribution is automatically charged to your credit card or deducted from your checking account each month. Your membership continues uninterrupted until you request that we discontinue or change it.

We are pleased to acknowledge 2011 donors, Founding Sustainers, and Founding Members in the lists posted below. If you have any questions please contact Membership Director Stephanie Johnson at sjohnson@minnpost.com.

Our 2011 Year End Report includes a list by category of all 2011 donors, from Copy Boys and Girls to Media Moguls. The Founding Sustainers list includes 651 people who signed on during our first annual sustaining membership campaign in June 2011. The Founding Members list includes 722 people whose donations were received around the time of our launch in November 2007.

To readers who haven’t yet become donors, please consider this a personal invitation to join the MinnPost family here. We cannot do this without you.

With heartfelt thanks,
Joel and Laurie Kramer
