MinnPost’s summer member drive ended just under our goal of 150 contributions.
Since the campaign began on June 20, more than 130 readers made generous gifts to support MinnPost, including 57 new members and 24 rejoining members.
To all those who have given, THANK YOU! We want to especially thank the nearly 60 donors who became sustaining members of MinnPost through annual or monthly contributions during this drive.
Readers who wish make a gift in support of MinnPost’s work and to help us reach our campaign goal can still do so.
