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.

Queen's donation

The Queen has made a personal contribution to the memorial fund for the headteacher Philip Lawrence who was stabbed to death when he went to the rescue of a pupil being attacked by a gang outside his school on 8 December. Harry Greenway, MP for Ealing in north-west London where Mr Lawrence lived with his wife and four children, described the sum as substantial". The fund has pounds 60,000.
