Always Free, Thanks to You!

Celebrating 20 Years of Independent Media


We’ve published 300 issues and counting since 2001. Since the beginning, we have maintained the same principles: Little Village provides local, independent, free journalism that represents our values and serves our community’s needs. We believe that telling the truth can change the world. If you believe in that mission too, we invite you to support our work as a donor. Donors support a key part of our mission -- to provide our publications free to all in our community -- and aid Little Village's long-term sustainability; because of our donors, Little Village is "always free, thanks to you!"


When you become a donor, your name will be added to our growing list of supporters* as Little Village's way of letting our community know who helps make this work possible. But your donation can qualify you for more!


Subscribe to Little Village with your donation!

Donors who have a recurring donation of at least $10 per month (or $30/quarter, or $120/year) qualify for a mailed subscription to Little Village. Just indicate on the donation form that you wish to receive a mailed copy of Little Village -- don't forget to also provide your address -- and start enjoying Little Village being brought to YOU! If you donate at least $15 per month (or $45/quarter, or $180/year), you qualify to receive both the Eastern and Central Iowa editions of Little Village -- directly to your mailbox! 

Hint: Gift subscriptions can be perfect for that hard-to-shop-for friend or family member -- you can easily indicate that on the donation form, too!


All current Recurring Donors receive:

  • Recognition in print and on Little Village's website*
  • Exclusive, early access to newly released half-price gift cards, as part of our Reader Perks program
  • Access to the 'secret' Donors’ Lounge Facebook group, where you can chat with other supporters and Little Village staff, share tips and ideas, and get insider news from Little Village
  • Invitations to special events and early access to tickets for Little Village affiliated events
  • More surprises, as Little Village staff come up with them!

*Donors are recognized by name, company, alias, or as anonymous donors. All donors are recognized in the print edition of the month of their first donation, if the donation is made prior to our publication deadline. All donors are also listed in perpetuity on our Supporters page.
