My name is Sean, and I’m reaching out. Things are tough here in Ten Four world, and we want to start the new year off correct.

The Ten Four is experiencing growing pangs. The office (and my home) is extremely tenuous and is always just barely being held together; homelessness has been a real possibility now for months.

It began as a small project focused on reporting about policing and first responders, but frankly? It needs to be covering a wider range of issues and providing deeper investigative work that can really make a difference. The newsletter is also in need of a redesign to better serve its readers and reach more people in the community.

Any support would very much help make us work better and would mean so very much to me. Thank you for considering helping me and for believing in the power of independent journalism.
