Newsroom focused on investigative journalism in the public interest.

ProPublica is an independent, non-profit newsroom that produces investigative journalism in the public interest. Our work focuses exclusively on truly important stories, stories with “moral force.” We do this by producing journalism that shines a light on exploitation of the weak by the strong and on the failures of those with power to vindicate the trust placed in them.  Investigative journalism is at risk. Many news organizations have increasingly come to see it as a luxury. Today’s investigative reporters lack resources: Time and budget constraints are curbing the ability of journalists not specifically designated “investigative” to do this kind of reporting in addition to their regular beats. New models are, therefore, necessary to carry forward some of the great work of journalism in the public interest that is such an integral part of self-government, and thus an important bulwark of our democracy.

The Lower Eastside Girls Club supports young women & gender-expansive youth in leveraging their power through year-round programs.

**MISSION:** The Lower Eastside Girls Club (LESGC) supports young women and gender-expansive youth of color throughout New York City in leveraging their inner power to shape a better future for themselves, their community, and the world. As an innovative learning hub, we model practices of community resilience and self-reliance. By championing young people and channeling their curiosity and creative energy, we are transforming our world into one of  “Joy. Power. Possibility.” 

**HISTORY:** For decades, the Lower East Side of NYC had multiple boys’ clubs, but none for girls. In 1996, LESGC’s founders launched a program just for girls in the community. Although lacking a facility, LESGC quickly became a home–enabling members to collaborate and establish meaningful, healthy relationships. After “making it work” in borrowed spaces, our members and community advocated to acquire the plot of land where LESGC now stands. Our 35,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility proves that imagination inspires change. 

Today, we are globally recognized for our unique program model. Over 450 youth participate in our innovative programs annually—from developing video games in our planetarium and harvesting bok choy on our Rooftop Farm to citizen journalism, sustainability, and civic engagement—all through a lens of activism. We know that you can only serve the whole child by addressing the realities of the community in which they reside. In 2022, we expanded our mission and service population with the opening of our [Center for Wellbeing and Happiness](https://centerforwellbeing.nyc/), which provides free wellness services for community members of all genders and generations.

Provide medical and humanitarian relief collectively and individually to Arab children throughout the Levant.

The Palestine Children's Relief Fund was established in 1992 by concerned humanitarians in the USA to bring injured and sick children for free medical care they could not get locally. The story of our founding is written up here. Since then, we have sent over 2,000 sick and injured children for free medical care, as well as sponsored hundreds of volunteer medical teams from all over the world to treat tens of thousands of sick and injured youths in local hospitals. PCRF also has built two pediatric cancer departments in Palestine and has several more major programs and projects taking place to help support the development of a sustainable health-care system there. We are a grassroots organization depending on the support of thousands of volunteers all over the world to help us achieve our humanitarian mission.

Hard to keep up with tech sometimes. We need more investigations into how it's being used, and for whose benefit. 💻

Boggles the mind this is necessary. So glad The Human Utility is helping out.🚰

A private place with resources to help build healthy lives and families. 💖

Need more investigative journalists in the world. To untangling real life and fight off the conspiracy theories. 💪

"Original research to ground informed, evidence-based public debate about emerging technology." Yep. Need that. 🤩

Lifting up some of the most at-risk girls and families. Teaching them how to be future activists and leaders. 🥰

Books are great. Kids are great. Dolly is even cooler (how is that possible?) for bringing more of them together. 📚

America’s criminal justice system needs a lot of work. Like, a lot. More knowledge about how it works will help. 🤓

Heartbreaking seeing the news this week, children shouldn't experience such sadness.
