NPF’s Best of 2015

A message from NPF Board of Directors Chair Heather C. Dahl:

Giving to NPF is my holiday tradition. Every Christmas, I make a donation in my father’s honor, so other journalists can receive the training to succeed in a profession that has benefited my life and family in ways I could have never imagined when I stepped into my first newsroom. NPF is how I give back my incredible colleagues, peers, mentors, friends, and those just beginning their careers—it’s how I say thank you.

I encourage you to take a moment during this holiday season to consider the many ways journalism has benefited your life and join me in making a tax-deductible contribution here. Or go to the NPF website, click on the “Sponsor Us” tab and you’ll find a “Donate” button.​
