Here's how you can help

journalists like Sam:

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

• Annual Conference [5] events like "Podcasting Across Divides and in Community [6]"
• SEJournal resources like "COP28 Will Be Earth-Shaping News in 2024 and Beyond [7]" and "Expert Advice Helps Journalists Navigate Unfamiliar Scientific Seas [8]"

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

•  "These Foreign Workers Have Some of the Hardest Jobs in Idaho. Are They Mistreated, Too? [9]" by Ian Stevenson [10] for Idaho Statesman, August 20, 2023.
• "Carbon Valley [11]" (podcast episodes 1-9 inclusive), by Cooper McKim [12].
• "Saving Oregon's Rocky Coast: A Key Role for the Region's First People [13]," Jefferson Public Radio and Oregon Public Broadcasting, by Kate Kaye [14].

Give to SEJ's Conference Diversity Travel Fellowships [15] to help cover the costs of registration, travel, lodging and other expenses of Diversity Fellowships. Here’s what past participants had to say [16]:

• "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.
