2 DECEMBER 2017

As this eventful year comes to a close, I’ve been reflecting on the places we’ve gone, the people we’ve met, and the important stories we’ve told—from down your street to the far reaches of

Oregon and the region, and across our nation and world.

Whether you turned to OPB for independent, fact-based news reporting in a time when it has never been more critical, or to learn about the beauty of our natural environment and the art and culture that makes this region so unique, we thank you for being a part of the journey with us.

Your support helps us illuminate the people, places and issues of our region and put important stories into context. As we look to the future, our commitment to providing trusted news and rich stories that connect us all has never been stronger.

As you make your year-end giving plans, please use the envelope included in this guide to become a Sustaining Circle member or make a special, year-end gift today. Or pass it along to a friend or family member for them to join you in supporting this important public service, made possible by OPB members.
