Description
The Tiny News Collective empowers individuals to construct sustainable news organizations that cater to their communities by providing them with the necessary resources, tools, and knowledge. The Collective prioritizes amplifying voices that were traditionally excluded from media and ownership. The first cohort of members have begun publishing through their websites or newsletters while those in the second cohort are at various stages of pre-launch and publishing. In addition, monthly workshops have been incorporated, and they are currently experimenting with twice-monthly events.

Program areas at The Tiny News Collective

Tiny News Collectives first cohort members are publishing through their sites, newsletters or both. Members of the second cohort are at different stages of pre-launch and publishing. Weve incorporated monthly workshops and are experimenting with twice monthly blocks of time set aside for drop-in office hours. We are designing and scoping consulting opportunities to support founders in audience development and fundraising campaigns. In June 2022 we launched a fiscal-sponsorship-only program pilot. Through word-of-mouth, referrals and affiliate partnerships, we currently are working with five fiscal sponsorship-only clients. Additionally, TNC is serving as the charitable fiscal sponsor for the annual Sigma Awards, a competition to celebrate the best data journalism from around the world.
