We want your questions for DE’s 2024 candidates

The Delaware Journalism Collaborative, of which Technical.ly is a member, is organizing two debates for 2024 in August between candidates for governor and the US House of Representatives. So, what should we ask them?

Supporting our mission is now tax-deductible

This year, Technical.ly celebrates 15 years. That’s a pretty long time in today’s era of local news. We sustain our free journalism with services to reach our audience, a preferred partners program — and direct contributions to our independent newsroom.

Now that last has gotten a bit sweeter: Your contribution is tax deductible through our fiscal agency with the nonprofit behind Report for America. In February, we set a $1M Journalism Fund goal over this year and next to bolster our data journalism, cross-market comparisons and deeper trends and investigations, all without a paywall. But we can’t do it without your support — join us.
