"No reporter is an island on to themselves. We need to share and learn from each other. That’s what SEJ gives us. A place to grow, not just as an individual reporter, but to grow together as a community of like-minded change makers." - Amir Khafagy, Report for America corps member with Documented

Here's how you can help SEJ

support journalists like Amir:


Give to SEJ Programs to support essential training, resources and convening, such as:


Give to SEJ's Fund for Environmental Journalism to support small story grants, such as:


Give to SEJ's Conference Travel Stipends to help cover the costs of registration, travel, lodging and other expenses for #SEJ2025 attendees who would not be able to come to the conference without this support. Here's what past participants had to say:

  • “Since my newsroom does not cover costs for going to a conference, I would not have been able to attend without the fellowship. I'm really grateful to Uproot and SEJ for keeping this fellowship happening; so many people I spoke to were in the same boat as me, attending SEJ on a fellowship because they would not have been able to go otherwise. As newsrooms struggle across the country and these budgets for conferences are frequently cut, I really see it as one of the most important offerings that SEJ has.”
  • “I couldn't have attended the conference without it. I've been wanting to go to this conference for several years and didn't have the opportunity until this year. I think that these fellowships will help diversify conference goers and include more young reporters at smaller outlets.”


Legacy giving: If you are ready to create a lasting legacy with SEJ, we recommend using FreeWill to create your will in 20 minutes or less — for free!


Give to the SEJ Members in Need Fund to help cover membership dues and program fee waivers for members experiencing financial hardship. This fund is entirely supported by donations and was breaking even for years (thanks to the generosity of our members), but has recently fallen behind.
