<div><strong>Help a Young Independent Journalist Build the Future of News</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hi, my name is Jeremiah Patterson. At just 13 years old, I picked up a microphone and started reporting on politics, history, and current events. Now, <strong>EIGHT </strong>years later, I’m still doing what I love—reporting the truth!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m a 21 year old Black Independent Investigative Journalist with a mission: to deliver fact-checked, deeply researched, and accessible reporting that helps people truly understand the world around them—without corporate filters, political spin, or sensationalism. I create documentaries, special investigative reports, and conduct interviews with public officials, journalists, and everyday people to give you the full story.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But I’m doing this almost entirely on my own—and with virtually no budget.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My dream is to one day launch a full-scale media company—a towering news organization with my name on the building, run by a diverse team of truth-tellers committed to fearless, independent journalism. Every donation to this fundraiser brings me one step closer to that goal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support would help me:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Upgrade equipment for better quality reporting
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Travel for in-person interviews and on-the-ground reporting
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Expand my production capacity through TJPS Productions
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Build a sustainable platform for long-form, people-powered journalism
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you believe in Black independent media and the next generation of journalists, I invite you to donate and be part of this journey.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s build something powerful—together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you,
</div>
<div>Jeremiah Patterson
