Become a Streetsblog Superhero and Support Media That Makes a Difference

We're about halfway through our spring pledge drive, and we need more readers to shed your mild-mannered identities, don your superhero capes, and give to Streetsblog and Streetfilms.

We’re about halfway through our spring pledge drive, and we need more readers to shed your mild-mannered identities, don your superhero capes, and give to Streetsblog and Streetfilms.

Readers who’ve contributed to our spring campaign call Streetsblog a “trusted source of news” that produces reporting which “makes a difference” for safer streets. Every day our team is working to produce stories that keep you informed about what needs to change to make our city work better for walking, biking, and transit. Who else is going to hold City Hall’s feet to the fire on parking reform, or track the progress of badly-needed street safety overhauls through the city’s most torpid community boards?

Please join the readers who’ve given so far and keep Streetsblog and Streetfilms going strong with a tax-deductible contribution today. You’ll be making a difference for media that makes a difference.

And, if you give before Friday at midnight, you’ll be entered to win this sweet rack-mountable bag from Po Campo:

Thanks as always for supporting Streetsblog and Streetfilms! Your regularly scheduled posts will resume shortly.
