The Local Reporter
The Local Reporter (TLR) is a community news publication that is sponsored by the Friends of Local Journalism (FLJ), a 501(c)3 tax-exempt non-profit corporation registered in North Carolina. The sole function of the FLJ is to gather financial support for TLR. The Local Reporter will offer rigorous, unbiased reporting on local issues, host a civil forum for public debate, nurture local business, and above all, build community engagement and enrich local identity through the stewardship of an ever-evolving public narrative of life in Chapel Hill, Carrboro and southern Orange County.
EDITORIAL INDEPENDENCE POLICY
The Local Reporter subscribes to the standards of editorial independence adopted by the Institute for Nonprofit News. Decisions about choice or content of material published by TLR will not be influenced by consideration of present or future financial support.
DONOR POLICY
The Local Reporter is committed to transparency. Thus donations of over $5000 will be posted on our website while smaller donations are listed at the donor’s discretion. TLR maintains a firewall between its news coverage decisions and its sources of funding. Contributors to FLJ do not have any voice in the editorial decisions of TLR. While FLJ is pleased to accept donations from individuals, foundations or businesses, acceptance of those funds does not imply any endorsement by TLR or FLJ of the views or activities of the donor.
Thank you so much for the information about volunteering for food distribution. I was one of several new volunteers this week, thanks to you. Please let people know that it is easy to sign up and easy to be useful. I was at Eubanks Road, and my part was done in a hour. You don’t have to be strong or nimble; there are jobs for everyone. Instructions were clear, everyone was friendly, and water and porta-potties and hand sanitizer and gloves were provided. I’ll definitely return. Thank you for keeping us informed of these opportunities.
Hi Marcia, I don’t believe that I benefited from your services, but I still wanted to say thank you for your services! I get lunches from Meals on Wheels, and were it not for people like yourself, hundreds of people in our area would not have a proper balanced meal on most days. I just wanted you to know that someone was very grateful for your services… even if they didn’t directly benefit from them! Thank you!
