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.There are only a few hours left to snap up the incredible gifts and experiences in our Christmas charity auction.
Readers have until 10pm today to bid for lots including a limited-edition work donated by Turner Prize winner Grayson Perry: a woodprint of a half-bull, half-bear creature inspired by his Channel 4 series All Man.
Other lots up for grabs include a private box for eight people to watch Cirque du Soleil at the Albert Hall; the chance to play a cricket net at Lord’s with professional players; and behind-the-scenes tours of Battersea Power Station and London Zoo.
There are foodie dreams such as a day working beside Michelin-starred chef Ollie Dabbous in his new test kitchen, and a meal out with Standard restaurant writer Fay Maschler.
Sports fans can bid for a VIP trip to the Women’s Hockey World Cup and a signed England jersey, and politics aficionados can snap up an original work by our cartoonist Christian Adams.
The Independent and Evening Standard Christmas Appeal is raising funds for The Felix Project to ensure no child in primary schools supported by the charity ever goes to bed hungry.
Market-style stalls will, with readers’ help, be set up in 120 schools over two years, giving children a chance to take home healthy, nutritious food which would otherwise have gone to waste.
