TWO BINJ PROJECTS WIN AWARDS

We are thrilled to learn that Tibisay Zea has been given this year’s Rhode Island for Community & Justice Metcalf Award for Diversity in Media for her reporting on “Aging in the Shadows,” which took a hard look at getting old as an undocumented immigrant. The feature ran in English in DigBoston and in Spanish in El Planeta.

Also congratulations to Jim Botticelli, who was recently given an award by the Massachusetts Preservation Society for his work on Dirty Old Boston. Jim writes throwback columns for BINJ, and we support his extensive DOB efforts on social media as well.

Thanks for reading and please consider this:

If you appreciate the work we are doing, please keep us going strong by making a tax-deductible donation to our IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit sponsor, the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism!

BINJ not only produces longform investigative stories that it syndicates for free to community news outlets around Massachusetts but also works with dozens of emerging journalists each year to help them learn their trade while providing quality reporting to the public at large.

Now in its 10th year, BINJ has produced hundreds of hard-hitting news articles—many of which have taken critical looks at corporations, government, and major nonprofits, shedding light where it’s needed most.

BINJ punches far above its weight on an undersized budget—managing to remain a player in local news through difficult times for journalism even as it continues to provide leadership at the regional and national levels of the nonprofit news industry.

With your help BINJ can grow to become a more stable operation for the long term and continue to provide Bay State residents more quality journalism for years to come.

Or you can send us a check at the following address:

Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism
