Help build local news in Ottawa - join our Neighbourhood Journalism Crowdfunding Campaign
Local news in Canada is struggling to survive. But here at the Lookout, our small team is on a mission to expand our neighbourhood journalism across all of Ottawa. And it’s working.
Right now we’re in the middle of a critical crowdfunding campaign. The goal? Fund the expansion of neighbourhood news across Ottawa’s communities.
But unlike the other major publications, we’re mostly reader-funded. That means we can do neighbourhoods news without worrying about page views or ads.
We need 300 new members to join by Dec. 31, to fund this expansion and launch a new neighbourhood publication in one community, by hiring new reporters, building our website and funding our journalism.
Together, we can rebuild local neighbourhood news in Ottawa.
—Geoff, Charlie and Ralf, the Ottawa Lookout team
