Friends of Gig Harbor Now

Welcome to the Friends of Gig Harbor Now Spring Campaign, where every level of giving not only helps keep local journalism strong, but they also bring complimentary newsroom gifts to you. All you need to do is choose one of the following three donation levels detailed in the chart below, then complete your contribution on our online checkout page.

The first tier, ‘Happy to Help,’ is a $100 donation that includes a GHN sticker and virtual high fives from the newsroom. The second tier, ‘Everyday Reader,’ is a $250 donation that includes previous-tier gifts plus a GHN tote bag. The third tier, ‘Biggest Fan,’ is a $500 donation that includes previous-tier gifts plus a GHN stadium seat cushion. Donation buttons at the bottom read ‘I’ll Help,’ ‘I Love It,’ and ‘I’m All In.’ The graphic concludes with the message: ‘Every level of giving supports local news, and includes gifts for you.

The Levels of Giving

With this limited-time campaign, each of the three levels builds on the one before it. So whether you’re a “Happy to Help” donor tossing in $100, an “Everyday Reader” scrolling headlines over coffee, or a $500 “Biggest Fan,” you could receive a Gig Harbor Now sticker, tote bag or stadium seat — or a combination of the three items as a special one-time gift from us to you.

That’s right, the Friends of Gig Harbor campaign is our way of thanking those who help keep our independent online newsroom alive and thriving. Because good journalism takes community support to remain sustainable. (And because we know your water bottle could really use a cool GHN sticker).

Rules & Guidelines

Our Friends of Gig Harbor Now Spring Campaign kicks off Tuesday May 12, 2026 and continues through the season while supplies last. The gift items are available as one-time extras for contributions made to Gig Harbor Now within the stated levels of giving in the Friends of Gig Harbor Now promotion.

That’s OK, we’re not offended. In fact, donations in any amount are welcome outside of the gifting promotion by using our regular online donation form or by mailing a check to Gig Harbor Now, PO Box 546, Gig Harbor, WA 98335.
