At ThePressProject, we are once again calling for your support through standing orders. For the second consecutive year, we have published our Transparency Page, where you can see exactly how your contributions are used and why we emphasise the importance of your help.

On this page, you will find that 92% of our funding comes from individual supporters – people like you. The remaining 8% comes from YouTube ads, free from any advertising agreements with questionable market players. In practice, this means total transparency: every cent is accounted for, and every piece of content you see reflects paid work funded in ways we detail openly.

Why your support matters now more than ever

We believe that today, more than ever, the value of this model is clear. Over the past year, ThePressProject has consistently delivered:

  • Daily news coverage
  • News programs such as Ανασκόπηση and Φάρμα των Ζώων
  • In-depth reports, interviews, and analysis
  • A steady news flow, free from the constraints of sensationalism

Our financial independence allows us – and indeed, compels us – to prioritise quality over virality. Unlike other media outlets, we avoid police-driven or sensationalist stories, no matter how tempting the trends on social media. Instead, we focus on core issues that align with our mission, even when these subjects are less popular or viral.

This approach echoes the Guardian’s decision to leave Elon Musk’s X platform, citing its toxicity and the need to foster a community of readers who value thoughtful, purpose-driven journalism over sensational clicks.

Our goal is to encourage our audience to engage with journalism consciously and thoughtfully. We ask you to strengthen this kind of reporting. The ecosystem of independent media thrives on collaboration, not competition: the more people who support this model, the stronger it becomes.

The challenges of independence

Unlike many outlets, we don’t have an “investor” – no tycoon dictates our content or orientation. This independence comes at a cost: growth is slow and difficult. Yet it is also a source of immense pride.

Your support directly impacts what we can achieve. Not just to ensure our continued existence – because, as our Transparency Page makes clear, our survival depends entirely on small subscriptions – but also to allow us to do more:

  • Improve working conditions within ThePressProject
  • Produce more investigative reports, broadcasts, and in-depth missions
  • Expand our reach and create more content

A small contribution, a big impact

Even a contribution as small as €5 per month makes a significant difference. This is not just a plea; it is the foundation of our financial model. Every subscription sustains the kind of journalism that matters.

If you are fortunate enough to have some financial stability, this year, we invite you to subscribe to ThePressProject. Your support fuels independent journalism that prioritises the public interest over profit.

Together, we can do more

By subscribing to ThePressProject, you are not just supporting us, you are investing in a better-informed society. Join us in shaping the future of independent media.
