We offer a robust regional news service supported by an award-winning newsroom, home to Billy Penn, PlanPhilly and the WHYY Climate Desk. We are deeply committed to the needs of young people.

We bring together people in the region for interesting and fun events in person and online. From critical community conversations to advanced screenings with big personalities, keep an eye on WHYY.org/events for things to do all year round.

We are once again honored to be included among the Every Voice, Every Vote coalition members receiving grant support to expand access to civic news and information. WHYY's multi-platform journalism and community engagement efforts will benefit from this funding!
We are excited to announce the 71 Every Voice, Every Vote coalition members receiving $2.875 million to expand access to civic news and information in 2024 and 2025. These 71 Philadelphia media organizations and community groups are launching journalism and civic engagement projects that connect residents to local government, amplify voices from Philadelphia communities, and track the progress of the city’s new administration. They will be joined in these efforts by dozens more coalition members, including local social media creators and additional media and community organizations. This phase of the coalition's work builds on our success leading up to the 2023 municipal elections. In 2024 and 2025, the coalition is focused on the day-to-day activities that strengthen communities and democracy. To do this, we are committed to the following calls to action: -Be heard: Let public officials and fellow community members know our priorities — at the polls and in our neighborhoods. -Be engaged: Participate in town halls and civic engagement events to dive deep into the issues that matter most. -Be accountable: Transcend apathy and ensure public officials and communities are doing their part. -Take action: Make change in small and big ways: sign petitions, show up to public meetings, unite our neighborhoods around important issues. Lead support for Every Voice, Every Vote in 2024 and 2025 is provided by the William Penn Foundation with additional funding from Lenfest Institute for Journalism, Comcast NBC Universal, The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Henry L. Kimelman Family Foundation, Judy and Peter Leone, Arctos Foundation, Wyncote Foundation, 25th Century Foundation, and Dolfinger-McMahon Foundation. https://lnkd.in/gZKPgmff
