How to support California’s journalism today?

As editor-in-chief at Russian California, I take immense pride in each story we bring to you and our readers across the state. Our mission is clear: to ensure that communities using languages from the post-Soviet space actively participates in local life, address local issues, and have a credible alternative to foreign propaganda media.

Yet, much of our labor remains unseen.

We tirelessly file public records requests, meticulously refine language to clarify complex processes, and sift through endless datasets to uncover significant trends. Days are spent in calls and meetings, seeking insights from numerous individuals who hold the keys to uncovering truth.

We consistently strive to involve speakers from our communities as editors, reporters, data researchers, designers, visual journalists, developers, translators, engagement journalists, and more.

Today, I invite you to support local journalism.

Your contribution ensures we can continue this vital work, delivering stories that matter to you and your community.
