#NewsCONeeds Giving Campaign is Underway

For 38 years, Denver Urban Spectrum has been a lifeline for community-centered journalism, illuminating the stories and experiences that shape Denver’s vibrant and diverse neighborhoods. We highlight the people, places, and issues often overlooked by mainstream media and provide a trusted platform rooted in truth, culture, and community power.

Across the country, independent Black media outlets are shrinking — not because our stories lack value, but because the funding needed to sustain them continues to erode. Community-based, culturally grounded journalism thrives only when the community it serves stands strong behind it. And right now, we truly need that strength.

If you believe our stories matter — if you want Denver’s diverse voices to remain visible, valued, and heard — we are asking you to stand with us. Show DUS matters…DONATE TODAY!

A one-time gift or a monthly contribution of any amount makes a meaningful difference. Your generosity fuels the reporting, storytelling, and community engagement that uplift our neighborhoods.

We are now in the most important part of the #NewsCoNeeds campaign — the November Rally Prize.

November 26 is the deadline to get as many unique donors as possible — whether it’s $5, $10, or $500 — every single donor counts the same.

This is truly a participation challenge, and it’s our chance to show the power of our community. But we can’t win it without you. We need your support – our readers, subscribers, advertisers, supporters, sponsors, friends and family.

“We’re racing to unlock our $1,000 match! Your $5 gift becomes $10, and it gets us one step closer to winning the November Rally!”

Your support strengthens our work, fuels our storytelling, and helps ensure that Denver Urban Spectrum will continue lifting voices and amplifying our community for generations to come. We are counting on you and appreciate you.

It’s easy, it’s simple, and it’s meaningful.
