How is the Mat-Su Sentinel Funded?
We believe access to information is a community service that supports the public good.
In communities around the U.S. readers like you support nonprofit news. Your donations are vital to getting the Sentinel started and then keeping it going.

We believe financial transparency is key to running a trustworthy, nonpartisan news source. Financial support does not influence news coverage. We also do not allow donations from certain groups, including political parties and elected officials. Read more about our financial transparency rules.
Like many small startup nonprofits, the Mat-Su Sentinel operates as a fiscal sponsor under the umbrella of a larger nonprofit’s 501c3 status. The Mat-Su Sentinel receives fiscal sponsorship from the Tiny News Collective. Fiscal sponsorship provides benefit that include affordable administrative support around taxes and other required filings.
