"I support this paper because the information it provides is so valuable and lacking these days. The unbiased articles help my understanding about my community. I think a paper like CI should exist for all regions in Texas." TABITHA L.
"When CI Patrons give, it helps fund our hyperlocal reporting and hire more journalists to take CI coverage to the next level. Community giving overall strengthens our opportunity to be a light in our industry." JOE WARNER
