We Don't Want To Vanish. LAist Needs Your Help

LAist only exists with your help.

Full transparency: Although we’ve experienced a huge growth in readership, not nearly enough of our readers have stepped up to support our non-profit model. Please take a moment right now during our spring member drive to keep LAist strong.

We have a situation. At a time when Los Angeles needs more — not less — journalism, local newsrooms are being devastated by layoffs and furloughs.

We are still here... for now. But we are threatened by the same forces that have decimated other media outlets. LAist and KPCC are bracing for a 25% drop in revenue.

If you can help us close the gap, now is the time to do it. Support our vital, local, nonprofit journalism with a donation. LAist could disappear without your support.

If you'd like more convincing (or if you want to know why our coronavirus guide has been read nearly 400,000 times), here you go.
