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.

Now... On 18 August, Venue Holidays has a week's family camping in France at the La Croix du Vieux Pont site near Paris and Reims. It costs £683 for two adults and up to four children in a mobile home, plus Dover-Calais ferry crossing (venueholidays.co.uk).

Soon... Beautiful Bologna beckons on 28 August, when Citalia has a three-night escape to the cosmopolitan capital of Emilia-Romagna for £355pp. The price includes B&B at the Hotel Al Cappello Rosso and BA flights from Gatwick (citalia.com).

Later... Early September is the ideal time to visit the home of Harvard, the Charles River and oldest park in the US – Boston. Virgin has a three-night stay at the Courtyard Downtown (room only) with flights from Heathrow on 6 September for £699pp (virginholidays.co.uk).
