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.

Robert Chote, economics correspondent of the Independent on Sunday and Independent, was named Young Financial Journalist of the Year last week. The judges cited the maturity, judgement and technical competence of his writing, vital ingredients of the Independent's 'particularly strong economics team'. The awards were launched in 1970 in memory of Harold Wincott of the Financial Times.

Neal Ascherson, writer and columnist, has won the 1993 Journalism Award of the Anglo-German Foundation for the Study of Industrial Society, for his columns in the Independent on Sunday on German subjects. The prize is given annually to a British and a German journalist for writing about each other's country. This year's German winner was Dr Bernhard Heimrich, London correspondent of the Frankfurter Allgemeine.

The Independent on Sunday is runner-up as National Sunday Newspaper of the Year in the 1993 Media Yearbook Awards, which are determined by a panel of 28 editors drawn from across the periodical press. Last year it won the award, which this year went to the Sunday Times. Judges praised the IoS for its 'classy, challenging writers, its 'forthright questioning of institutions', and the unrivalled quality of the Sunday Review.
