How to support student journalism
wlhsNOW staff gathers for a group photo at Fall Media Day in Eugene at the University of Oregon.
The Amplifier is a student publication that just reached its 100-year long tradition of publishing a quarterly print edition newspaper each year. In order for us to be able to continue this tradition, we are in need of financial support. Rather than spending our time selling baked goods or having car washes as a way of fundraising we need to be focused on storytelling and reporting, which is why we would appreciate your support. Donations of any size are welcome, however when you contribute $15 or more we will add you to our subscription list. This means you will be sent a copy of each of our print editions for the 2019-2020 school year.
Donate here.
Your donation will support the student journalists of West Linn High School. Your contribution will allow us to continue to produce quality content by purchasing equipment, software, and continuing to host our website on School Newspapers Online (SNO).
