Leadership Giving

Help us build a stronger, more vibrant community.

Contributions from individuals are LPM’s single largest source of support. Our average member donates $213 per year, but support at all levels makes you a member.

Are you ready to make a bigger impact? 

Investing in LPM as a major donor provides not only the resources necessary to fulfill our mission, but also the ability to innovate, challenge and increase our impact as a pillar of our community.

Members donating annual cumulative gifts of $2,400 or more are crucial to supporting LPM’s programming and our mission to inform, inspire and empower. Plus, we work with you on a giving plan that aligns our programs and services with your philanthropic goals and vision for impact.

We hope you’ll join our group of passionate supporters who believe that for our community to thrive, we need a robust free press, a thriving arts ecosystem, and a space for frank and civil conversation. Your support helps LPM serve our community in all of these ways and more.

To thank you for their generosity, we offer a host of benefits and exclusive opportunities to join us behind-the-scenes at LPM and in unique experiences around the city (see below for some of the opportunities offered).

Donate online today.

We are pleased to accept gifts through check, bank draft, Donor Advised Funds, family foundations, gifts of stock and through your IRA or estate.

Looking for more ways to support? You can donate a car, become a business sponsor and other take advantage of other smart and thoughtful ways to give your public media organization.
