Your role in it

(https://contact.mainepublic.org/s/4514444/4xSejqoY)

(https://contact.mainepublic.org/s/4514445/4xSejqoY)

Ben,

Here we are at the end of January, and I have to say that so far, this year feels different. To begin with, this is the first year in Maine Public’s nearly 65-year history that we rang in the new year without federal funding.

We are in uncharted territory and yet, our team is reinvigorated by the support that you and your neighbors have shown for this service.

Ben, Maine Public is here in 2026 because of community support. We’ve made progress on closing the funding gap, but there is still work to be done. Your support (https://contact.mainepublic.org/s/4514446/4xSejqoY) now makes a difference.

DONATE NOW (https://contact.mainepublic.org/s/4514447/4xSejqoY)

You know the impact this service has in your life, Ben. Whether you depend on Maine Public for trusted, independent journalism free from commercial and political pressure… strong local storytelling that reflects your community… or free, universal access that ensures equity regardless of income, we are here for you because of your ongoing support (https://contact.mainepublic.org/s/4514448/4xSejqoY).

Thank you for standing with Maine Public at this pivotal moment.

Sincerely,

Scott Marchildon
VP & Chief Development Officer
Maine Public

Warning

Almost all the messages that arrive here are garbage! Resist the urge to click on any unexpected or questionable links.

It may happen that e-mail will claim to come from liamon.com, especially from some administrative role or process. These are certainly garbage. There are no accounts to expire. There are no passwords to leak. There aren't administrators sending messages to liamon.com addresses. These are certainly phishing attempts.

Absolutely ignore those links!
