Strong communities need trusted local news.
As misinformation spreads and local news organizations continue to disappear, independent reporting has never been more important. MercerMe provides reliable, fact-based coverage that helps Hopewell Valley residents understand what’s happening in their community and stay connected to one another.
Every story we publish helps preserve an informed community, encourages civic engagement, and creates a lasting record of Hopewell Valley.
Reader support makes that work possible.
If MercerMe helps you stay informed, understand where you live, and feel more connected to your community, please consider becoming a supporter today.
Why Recurring Support Matters
Most of MercerMe’s reporting happens between big moments.
Monthly and yearly support allows us to plan ahead, cover meetings week after week, and publish reliably — not just when there’s a headline event.
Recurring support also helps keep MercerMe independent by reducing reliance on any single funding source.
What Your Support Makes Possible
Support helps sustain everyday reporting, including:
Coverage of municipal meetings, boards, and commissions
Ongoing reporting on schools and district decisions
Local public safety updates and accountability reporting
Community events and issues that don’t make regional headlines
It’s what allows MercerMe to publish consistently, not sporadically and to stay focused on Hopewell Valley.
Other Ways to Support MercerMe
In addition to monthly and yearly support, MercerMe also accepts:
One-time contributions at any level
Mid- to major gifts, including donations made through our fiscal sponsor
These contributions help strengthen MercerMe’s long-term sustainability and support continued local reporting.
