Philanthropic support is crucial for preserving local news in Burke County, NC. Subscription and advertising revenue do not cover the ever-increasing costs of staffing, printing, delivering, and sustaining The Paper, Burke County's only home-delivered, all-local, and locally owned print and digital newspaper. 

Contributions to the Western North Carolina Journalism Foundation (a 501(c)(3)) ensure The Paper's long-term ability to provide superb, comprehensive, community-focused journalism, covering local events, issues, and stories that matter most to residents. 

 By supporting The Paper, donors help maintain an informed public, foster civic engagement, and uphold the integrity of independent journalism. The Paper's dedication to being all local, all the time, underscores its commitment to serving the unique needs of Burke County, making philanthropic contributions indispensable.
