Meet the New Media Makers
– and the Foundations that Make their News Sites Possible

From investigative journalism projects to ethnic news services, from community news venues to niche reporting sites, new media makers are launching news and information initiatives that are increasingly attracting support from community, family and other foundations.

From 2005 to today, J-Lab has tracked $164,455,589 million in grants awarded to at least 137 news projects in 20 states and the District of Columbia. In the searchable database below, you can find these grants by the name of the foundation that issued funding, by the name of the news project that received grant support, or by state.

This database includes funding only for news and information projects. It does not include funding for public broadcasting programs, for the underwriting of documentaries, for journalism training or student news services.

How to add information

If you’ve awarded a grant or received a grant for a news initiative and it’s not in this database, please tell us and we’ll add it.
