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 new donation center serves as an extension of Horizon Goodwill’s longstanding mission to promote social mobility and economic opportunity across the region. Each donation directly funds employment support, education programs, and other initiatives targeted at individuals facing barriers to independence and self-sufficiency. Horizon Goodwill, a nonprofit organization with a 70-year presence in the community, has consistently reinvested in local programs that benefit residents throughout Western Maryland.
Increased access to donation facilities is expected to streamline contributions and allow Horizon Goodwill to expand its outreach. Residents in and around Hagerstown can now drop off items closer to home, enabling more frequent participation in charitable giving without significant inconvenience. The organization notes that every item donated can be used to fuel job training and placement services, contributing to stronger local employment outcomes.

While other outlets focus on getting quotes from politicians who don't even live in our congressional district, we're focused on providing the hard-hitting truths and facts without political spin. We don't lock our news behind a paywall, will you help us keep it that way? If you're tired of news sweetened with confirmation bias, consider becoming a monthly supporter. But if you're not, that's fine too—we're confident in our mission and will be here if you decide you're ready for the truth. Just $5/month helps fund our local reporting, live election night coverage, and more.
