This week, the BenitoLink Pledge of Champions hit $25,210 and donations will continue to be matched up to 50,000, thanks to our local major donors!

As we pass this goal, donors can support the cause, and we will continue doubling individual donations of $1,000 and under. We are pleased to pass our first goal of reaching the $25,000 offered by NewsMatch.  NewsMatch is made up of a group of foundations helping to re-build local news by supporting nonprofit news websites like BenitoLink.

Local major donors Randy and Rebecca Wolf, Hugh and Jackie Bikle and Sallie Calhoun and Matt Christiano will match your donation to $50,000.

The BenitoLink team’s primary interest is to serve the residents of San Benito County as the local trusted news source by covering local government and community issues. BenitoLink also welcomes writers and contributors who live in the region and want to take part in increasing transparency and advance civic dialogue. 

Make a commitment to BenitoLink so we can continue to give you the information you need.
