Please support
local journalism in the Estes Valley.
Please support the Estes Valley Voice through the 2025 ColoradoGives campaign.
Last year, the Colorado Media Project and News Collaborative, or COLab, served as our fiscal sponsor, and through your support, we received a grant of $11,294 to support our newsroom and journalists.
That was a great operational runway for us during our first six months. We have again been offered an opportunity by the Colorado Media Project to participate in this year’s Colorado Gives campaign.
The Estes Valley Voice is an award-winning, independent, journalist-founded, and locally owned digital newsroom that offers accurate, fact-based, and in-depth news and commentary, focusing on the people, businesses, and events in the Estes Valley.
Our mission is twofold: to produce and distribute news, features, and commentary based on six fundamental cornerstones of journalism—integrity, independence, accuracy, accountability, objectivity, and transparency—and to be a forum for the civil exchange of viewpoints and public engagement.
We are a public benefit corporation, which, according to Colorado law, is a for-profit company “intended to produce a public benefit or public benefits and to operate in a responsible and sustainable manner.”
While staying in business is the first rule of any business, a public benefit corporation shifts the paradigm from profits to people, and from the corporation to the community.
The Estes Valley Voice news team includes writers, editors, photographers, and content producers who are passionate about hyperlocal news.
Journalism is a public good. A strong, independent media is correlated with a more civically engaged local community.
The Estes Valley Voice will strive to earn the respect of our readers by delivering honest, accurate news that is connected to our community.
Please consider supporting us through the 2025 Colorado Gives campaign.
Support Local Journalism
in the Estes Valley
Over the past 15 months, we have worked hard to build an independent, locally owned, and journalist-led newsroom in the Estes Valley. To do what we do, we rely on the support of readers in our community. While none of our content is behind a paywall, we need our readers to be subscribers, super-subscribers, advertisers, or sponsors.
Sponsors are individuals, organizations, and businesses that believe a free and independent local media is a public good that should be supported.
And while the news should be accessible to everyone for free, the operation of a newsroom requires funding. Journalists are professionals who deserve to be paid a living wage for their work.
The old model of media ownership by an individual publisher or corporation has come into question, as many newspapers have shuttered and communities across the country have become news deserts, either with no local paper or with a publication that is a shadow of its former self.
Through your financial support, subscribers, super-subscribers, advertisers, and sponsors underwrite news coverage of local news, the arts, the environment, wildlife, nonprofits, minority and special needs communities, healthcare, mental health, and both our English and Spanish language podcasts. Please contact us to talk about a sponsorship, news@estesvalleyvoice.com.
