The U.S. is 64th out of 180 in the World Press Freedom Index.
Reporters Without Borders uses economic, political, legislative, security and sociocultural indicators to analyze each country’s press freedoms. The United States, a country founded on First Amendment rights, including a free press and free speech, received a “problematic” score of 62 out of 100. But where there is news literacy, there is hope. When students understand their First Amendment rights and value a free press, they’ll be prepared to protect both. That’s where you come in.
All gifts matched in support of a free press!
Help us reach more kids.
This month, all one-time gifts will be matched, dollar for dollar up to $10,000. Plus, all new monthly gifts will be annualized and doubled! For example, a $50 monthly gift will be multiplied by 12 and receive a $600 matching gift!
Thank you to Debra Perry and her foundation, the PB&K Family Foundation, for helping us reach more students this month with her generous matching gift contribution.
