Dear 14 East readers, supporters and community,
As we round out our fifth anniversary as a publication, we are once again reminded of the incredible family surrounding 14 East that makes all of this possible. Although we did not meet our $2,500 goal, we still managed to raise over $1,000 –– enough to cover all of the costs of our yearly anthology, one of our keystone projects. We are continuously amazed at the support for our storytelling by those at DePaul, in Chicago and beyond. With all of your generous contributions, we will be moving confidently into our next five years of journalism that aims to serve, empower and uplift communities in Chicago.
Thank you again to all of those who contributed and those who continue to read, engage, share and embrace our work. It is truly so appreciated.
