Ways to support Elevate Dayton

Content Powered By Elevate Dayton

Elevate Dayton needs your support. The team has worked hard to bring you stories and perspectives that normally would not have been covered. Elevate Dayton needs financial support from our community to continue publishing quality, community-based stories.

 

The first way you can financially support the outlet is through the contribution banner on our website. Whatever contribution you can make will help keep Elevate Dayton free for the community to access. No contribution is too small as every dollar helps. Contributions are not tax deductible so please only contribute what you can afford.

 

Let’s take a look at some notable stories Elevate Dayton has covered so far. Your contribution will help us continue publishing quality, community-based stories like these:

 

• Commentary about the significance of Dave Chappelle’s Gem City Shine block party in the aftermath of the Oregon District mass shooting

•  

• A local nonprofit hosting a Black Excellence Weekend

•  

• A professional development coach adapting her book into a stage play that also benefited the community

• Analysis about the legacy of racial housing covenants in Dayton

•  

• Partnerships with The ONEIL Center and the Dayton Weekly News

•  

• A profile about an up-and-coming rapper from West Dayton

•  

• A series featuring the perspectives of Dayton-area leaders who were named as supporters of a Senate resolution declaring racism a public health crisis

Elevate Dayton was a concept that “rose from the ashes” of the KKK rally and Memorial Day tornadoes that struck the Miami Valley in 2019. Our team saw numerous perspectives that were being left out of the mainstream media discourse in the Dayton-area and each member of our team jumped in with both feet to fill the void.

 

Our being fully committed to this cause was the impetus, serving to define and launch Elevate Dayton. It allowed us to connect with so many great people and organizations across the Miami Valley and help tell their stories to those in the area and beyond.

The Elevate Dayton team is working on additional ways to support the outlet and other nonprofits and organizations in the area. We are finalizing arrangements and will announce those plans soon.

 

In the meantime, Elevate Dayton will continue covering what goes uncovered. Thank you for reading and your continued support.
