Decision Time
Fellow Lions are requested to participate in deciding how to use the roughly $1500 we have accumulated from subscriptions since our last donation.
We are considering a number of worthy recipients, including several small individual reporters and larger non-government-funded news organisations, some of which publish behind paywalls.
Read the comments, and vote. In the comments, if you can, please provide more information on the less well-know candidates and/or add more possibilities.
BTW, If you have voted already and change your mind, you can change your vote.
