One Donation, Twice the Impact for News and Public Affairs Programming

News and public affairs programs

CHALLENGE BEGINS SATURDAY, MARCH 1

No matter how you choose to get your news — radio, television, podcasts or online — VPM News is your essential source for trusted, factual local reporting in Virginia.

While many newsrooms are shrinking or disappearing altogether, VPM News works continuously to broaden its coverage. Thanks to community support, VPM continues to invest in a growing news team that is committed to delivering accurate, trustworthy news coverage of important events and issues impacting Virginians. From comprehensive General Assembly coverage, local news video updates on social media and the PBS APP, hundreds of articles and resources on our website including Spanish language translations, and beyond, the VPM news team works hard to make it easier for Virginians to stay informed.

VPM is also dedicated to broadcasting high-quality news and public affairs programs and specials, like PBS News Hour, Washington Week, Firing Line, Life in the Heart Land, VPM’s Alzheimer’s documentary series, interactive discussion series like Racism: Challenging Perceptions, special broadcasts of important political events, breaking news and more.

Furthermore, VPM continues to expand in the digital realm, producing podcasts that keep up with local news and public affairs including The Virginia Press Room, the VPM Daily Newscast, RVA’s Got Issues and more.

Make the most of your support for programs that keep our community informed.

When you contribute to our News and Public Affairs Challenge Saturday, March 1 through Sunday, March 9, a generous group of donors who value the importance of an informed community will match EVERY dollar —  up to a total of $15,000!

Help us reach our goal!
