Help us turn $30,000 in community donations into $60,000 for local journalism.

LkldNow exists because the people who live here deserve stories told by people who actually live here too. We’re Lakelanders writing about Lakeland — the neighborhoods, the decisions, the people, and the moments that make this city what it is.

And right now, your support can go twice as far.

Now through December 31, a local donor and NewsMatch will double your donation up to $1,000. And new recurring monthly donations will get a little extra love, matching 12x up to the same amount. That means that, through NewsMatch, your donation will get us even closer to our $60,000 campaign goal.

Help us hit the match. Help us keep telling Lakeland’s story.

LkldNow is an independent, nonprofit local newsroom based in Lakeland, FL. Your donation is tax-deductible and goes directly to funding original community journalism.
