We’re excited to announce a new program designed to help journalists achieve their career goals.
Whether you’re looking to attend a conference, participate in a skills workshop, or take career-enhancing training, our Level Up Initiative can help cover the costs.
We provide support in the form of (almost) no-strings-attached stipends — in the amounts of $250 and $500 — to help you invest in your growth, expand your network, and take your career to the next level.
You can submit an application until March 17th!
For our inaugural round, we have stipends set aside specifically for student journalists and early-career journalists who never attended a formal journalism program.
