What is City Budget Watchdog?
The Public Press is covering City Hall and San Francisco’s budget
crisis – because someone has to do it. Spot.us is leading the campaign
to raise money to pay a team of professional journalists to do this
important work. We need to raise $5,000 to support this project. The
good news is that we’re more than halfway there! We’ve raised $2,710
so far, including a $1,000 matching grant from Ruth Ann Harnisch,
president of the Harnisch Foundation in New York. Your contribution
will help us reach our goal and support noncommercial, public-interest
journalism in San Francisco.
Thanks for your support and see you there!
