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.

DONALD BRYDON, chairman and chief executive of AXA Investment managers, the second largest asset management group in the world, has been made chairman of the European Children's Trust.

The charity was originally set up in 1990 to help the children in orphanages in Romania, and has since expanded its activities to other parts of the former Communist bloc, including Albania and Ukraine.

Mr Brydon joined the Barclays group in 1977 and ended up as head of BZW Investment Management. He made the switch to the French insurance group AXA two years ago.
