Michigan’s nonpartisan, nonprofit news source

Help us power our nonprofit newsroom

As we make our way into a new decade, our goals at Bridge remain the same: To provide passionate and rooted Michigan readers with honest, fact-driven journalism on the state’s diverse people, politics, and economy.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Bridge provides a public service first and foremost. This means we don’t have a paywall on our site, charge a subscription fee, or clutter our articles with ads that have nothing to do with our community. You can trust nonprofit news.

We've nearly doubled our members this year, from 3,500 to 6,500. You're not alone if you believe our work is valuable. As we launch our summer fundraising campaign we're asking readers to contribute what you think we're worth. We believe this is the path to a sustainable business model for statewide news.

If you value our work, will you make a tax-deductible donation today?

By contributing, you’re supporting everyone on staff — and allowing independent news to thrive at Bridge Michigan.

If you’d like to send a check, please mail it to: The Center for Michigan, 4100 N. Dixboro, Ann Arbor, MI 48105.
