Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Competition time! We’re delighted that The Independent will once again be exclusive news partner for the wonderful Henley Literary Festival, which takes place from 28 September to 6 October.

Our journalists will be interviewing some of the line-up’s biggest names, including Jacqueline Wilson, David Nicholls, David and Yinka Olusoga, and Sir Anthony Seldon. Other must-see talks include Gabby Logan, Michael Palin, Shirley Ballas and Rick Stein.
