UPDATED June 1: YourArlington is a website devoted to local news and information about Arlington, Mass. Managed by Bob Sprague, a former editor of The Arlington Advocate who also has been an editor at the Boston Globe and Boston Herald, the website is a recognized and established news resource for our town.
From 2006 until December 2021, the site accepted advertising. Since then, and now, as a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization to which donations are tax-deductible, it seeks underwriting, donations and grants to support its mission, which is "to bolster an engaged citizenry and so strengthen our community and democracy."
Guided by an Arlington-based volunteer board of directors, YourArlington seeks support from individuals, families, organizations and businesses who, as we do, believe that an informed public is essential to democracy.
To bolster that view, please consider contributing according to the following levels:
| Monthly | Annually |
|---|---|
| $50 or less | Up to $600 |
| $125 | $1,500 |
| $200 | $2,400 |
| $300 | $3,600 |
