About

Your gift helps The Michigan Daily continue producing award-winning student journalism while also adapting to changes in the field.

In case you missed the opportunity to give during The Michigan Daily's annual rivalry challenge with the OSU Lantern, you can still make an impactful gift today.

The Daily is editorially independent from the university, meaning we rely on support from our readers to continue our groundbreaking reporting on the issues that matter, from city council corruption to university funding cuts. Your donations to The Daily’s Program Fund would be the primary funding source for much of our coverage, including sports travel to championship games, arts travel to Sundance Film Festival, and expenses for other major projects coordinated by Michigan Daily student staff.

Matching Opportunity: Our fundraising this year includes an additional incentive. Through the University of Michigan, any recurring donation of $100 or less will be DOUBLED with matching funds for a whole year!

Past support has allowed our students to:

  • Travel to cover the Rose Bowl and National Championship
  • Travel and lodging for coverage of the Sundance Film Festival and SXSW
  • Purchase new photo equipment to increase coverage of events
  • Be reimbursed for movie tickets for Daily Arts reviews
  • Experience a helicopter ride to update aerial stock photography
  • Enter state-wide and national journalism contests
  • Host campus and community events to increase awareness of The Michigan Daily
  • So much more!

Working at The Michigan Daily is a labor of love, and your support of these amazing students is very meaningful to them.

Thanks for your continued support and Go Blue!
