Re: A financial update from Gothamist & New York Public Radio
We need your support before we close our financial books
Hi News,
Only three days remain in June before we close the financial books for Gothamist’s fiscal year. We’re reaching out to ask you to make a last-minute donation to help us reach our goal of adding 361 donors by June 30.
Our CFO, Armando, sent the note below to let you know how critical and essential your support is.
Regardless of the amount, your donation will make a significant difference. It will empower us to invest in the Gothamist and WNYC newsroom for the upcoming year, ensuring we have the resources to report the news that matters most to you.
Gothamist is accessible for anybody to read, thanks to the generosity of our donors who contribute. Can we count on your support?

Dear News,
As we approach the end of our fiscal year on June 30, I am reaching out with an important message. My name is Armando Gutierrez, and as the Chief Financial Officer of New York Public Radio, I might not typically be the one contacting you. However, given the current circumstances, I wanted to personally underscore the critical need for your support.
These are particularly challenging times for public media and journalism. The landscape is rapidly evolving, with increasing financial pressures and competition for funding. Despite these obstacles, our commitment to delivering the in-depth, independent reporting that New Yorkers rely on remains steadfast.
Your generosity enables Gothamist and New York Public Radio to continue providing critical, local news coverage that informs and empowers our community. Our recent coverage on topics like the cost of housing, remote learning in schools, and our ever-evolving transit system exemplifies the essential journalism your donations fund.
As we aim to close our books on June 30, your donation is more crucial than ever. Ensuring a solid financial position will allow us to navigate these turbulent times and maintain our high standards of journalism.
P.S. The membership team has designed a T-shirt featuring a rat dressed as the Statue of Liberty. We’ll include one (you choose the color) with your $50 or higher donation.
