Grist is a nonprofit, independent media organization dedicated to telling stories of climate solutions and a just future. Our goal is to use the power of storytelling to illuminate the way toward a better world, inspire millions of people to walk that path with us, and show that the time for action is now. Our work is made possible through generous support from a wide variety of individuals and foundations. We retain full authority over editorial content and our news judgments are made independent of donor support.
If you’re interested in knowing who supports Grist, we make public all donations totaling $5,000 or more per year and all advertising partnerships totaling $1,000 or more per year. Please see our Annual Report  and our most recent 990 form.
