On November 12, SBC launched our 2026 fund drive to raise $50K through ad sales and donations. That will complete this year’s budget, at a time when it’s tough to find grant money. Big thanks to all the readers who have “chipped in so far” to help keep this site rolling to the end of 2026! Currently, we’re at $32,701 with $17,299 to go, ideally by the end of May.

That will help keep the site paywall-free for people on tighter budgets, as well as decision-makers. Thanks for your support!
