Here's how you can help

journalists like Emilio:

Give to SEJ Programs [2] to support essential training, resources and convening, such as:

• Annual Conference [4] events like "When the Smoke Clears: Forests, Carbon and Climate [5]"
• SEJournal resources like "Funding Initiative May Help Surface Overlooked Environmental Justice Stories [6]" and "Exploring the Impacts of Hydroelectric Megaprojects on Indigenous Lands [7]"

Give to SEJ's Fund for Environmental Journalism [2] to support small story grants, such as:

• "Charity Appeal in Guatemala, Where the Fight for Land and Water Rights Is a Battle for Survival [8]," by Richard Brown for The Guardian
• "The Fight To Save Ecuador's Sacred River [9]," by Mélissa Godin for TIME
• "Mexico Is Phasing Out Imports of Glyphosate and GMO Corn. Supporters Say That Could Reverse Years of Damage From U.S. Trade Policy. [10]" by Simran Sethi for The Counter

Give to SEJ's Conference Diversity Travel Fellowships [11] to help cover the costs of registration, travel, lodging and other expenses of Diversity Fellowships. Here’s what past participants had to say [12]:

• "I would not have been able to attend without the SEJ/Uproot diversity fellowship, and I am truly grateful for it as this is easily the best conference I've been to as a newer journalist. I am truly grateful for the program and hope it can be expanded so even more people, who otherwise would not be able to, can attend."
• "As an emerging freelance photojournalist in the midwest I have limited resources and opportunities to attend conference. This limits my ability for professional growth and networking. I would not have been able to attend the workshop without the Uproot Project Fellowship."

Give to the SEJ Members in Need Fund [2] to help cover fee waivers and other costs of participating in SEJ programs, for members experiencing financial hardship.
