Do you appreciate Streetsblog Chicago's paywall-free reporting and advocacy on sustainable transportation and traffic safety issues? While we officially ended our 2024-25 fund drive last month, we still need another $44K to keep the (bike) lights on in 2026. We'd appreciate any leads on potential major donors or grants. And if you haven't already, please consider making a tax-deductible donation here to help us continue publishing next year. Thank you!
