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%?

The Safe Summer program, organized by Safe Streets Baltimore with support from the Mayor’s Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement (MONSE), Catholic Charities, and LifeBridge Health’s Center for Hope, will host activities at Safe Streets sites and other venues. The theme for this year’s campaign, “Healing Our Streets, Piece by Peace,” highlights the focus on building unity and promoting non-violence through community engagement.
Safe Summer complements a range of city-sponsored programs for young people, including events led by the Baltimore City Department of Recreation and Parks. In 2024, the initiative organized over 50 events such as block parties and school supply drives, contributing to the broader effort to strengthen neighborhood ties and support youth development.
