Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The total cost of providing the training, technology and support for one phone call to Centrepoint is estimated to be just £10.

So for £10 you could provide a supportive voice at the end of a phone for one desperate young person facing a night in an unsafe place.

And with your donation that young person can get vital advice to help them access services they need to take control of their lives.

There are four ways to donate to our Christmas appeal:
