Feeling spammed today with GivingTuesday requests for support from your favorite charities? WSR has a request, too, but for ours you don’t need a credit card, PayPal, or cash.

Instead, you can show your support for our community-based coverage of the Upper West Side by reaching out to some friends or neighbors, telling them about the Rag, and urging them to sign up for our daily newsletter. It’s free, and so is our daily coverage of community affairs, local politics, business openings and closings, crime reports, profiles of UWSers, and so much more.

Our goal is to deliver the news, along with other items of interest – essays, poems, photos, features – every single day. You can support our efforts by forwarding this article to friends and neighbors so they can use the following link to subscribe:

Subscribe to WSR’s FREE email newsletter here

We currently have a little over 21,000 subscribers. Our goal is to have 25,000 by January 1. Subscriber numbers and page views for the site are essential information for recruiting more advertisers and building a sustainable financial base that will enable WSR to continue its mission: to inform, educate, entertain, and build community — and pay our great writers a decent wage.

We’d love to hear in the comments when your neighbors and friends confirm they’ve signed up!

Leave a comment

Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate. A detailed statement on comments and WSR policy can be read here.
