Dear FCIR Readers and Supporters,

Thank you for supporting FCIR on Give Miami Day. We received 39 individual contributions and raised $5,075, which will receive a partial match from the Miami Foundation. We appreciate your generosity, as the foundations supporting our work want to see this type of commitment from FCIR’s readers and supporters.

Still, we have not yet reached our individual fundraising goal for 2014. If you did not contribute to FCIR during Give Miami Day, or if you would like to make an additional contribution, I hope you’ll consider making a donation to FCIR before the end of the year. All contributions to FCIR are tax-deductible. Please, donate now.

Trevor Aaronson, Executive Director

Original Give Miami Day Fundraiser

Give Miami Day is here, and until 11:59 p.m. EST tonight, your credit card donation to the nonprofit Florida Center for Investigative Reporting will receive a partial match from the Miami Foundation.

We need your help so we can expand our journalism. Among our goals for 2015:

  • Expand our data journalism to help Floridians better understand our state through careful analysis of state and federal data
  • Increase the number of investigations we produce each year and deepen our reporting footprint in Tallahassee
  • Launch a series of live events throughout the state that will focus on the important issues affecting Florida
  • Create an online, confidential file drop that will allow whistleblowers throughout Florida to leak documents to FCIR using a system that will shield their identity, even from us

All donations by credit card of $25 or more up to $10,000 will receive a partial match from the Miami Foundation. Donations must be made by credit card from 12 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. EST on Nov. 20 to be eligible for the Miami Foundation’s partial match. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation right now on the Give Miami Day website or by using this form:
