Did you know? Paid supporters get a reduced ad experience!

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?
Thank you for supporting Radio Free Hub City!
The facility provides residential care for senior women, offering services such as medication management, assistance with daily activities, and home-cooked meals featuring clients’ favorite recipes. Additional services include transportation for appointments and shopping. Golden Girls Assisted Living has capacity for up to five residents, creating a personalized and comfortable environment.
“I call Hagerstown my home now,” Tillman stated. “We need a little over a million more beds in the next 10-15 years for the baby boomers. That means there’s a lot of work to be done. I can’t do it all by myself, but I can help. And we can all work together. Together, we can make it better.”

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Tillman, who relocated from Frederick due to the availability of single-level homes suited for senior care, emphasized the importance of community and the growing demand for senior living spaces. She noted that the increasing need for elder care, driven by the aging baby boomer population, inspired her to contribute to this effort in Hagerstown.
