The White House News Photographers Association  recognizes that many visual journalists may be facing financial hardship due to the impacts of covid-19. We are raising funds to offer assistance to some WHNPA members who have lost income due to a reduction of work or health issues during the pandemic.

An application process will be available to WHNPA members at a later date, after which a committee selected by the WHNPA board will determine how to distribute the funds to individuals in need.

To learn more about our 99-year-old organization, which represents visual journalists based in the Washington, DC, area, go to www.whnpa.org .

We thank you in advance for supporting the free press and helping make sure visual journalists can continue to do their important work.
