Background
Voice of San Diego is an online-only local news site. Established in 2005,[1] it was one of a number of such publications that emerged around that time in response to layoffs at traditional local print newspapers.[2][3][4] The site is known for both its news coverage and local investigative reporting.[1][4][5] The website is partially funded by grants, but is financed primarily on a nonprofit membership model.
The News Revenue Hub, which helps other nonprofits adopt membership features, started as a project of Voice of San Diego in 2016.[6][7][8] In 2017 it was spun off as an independent organization.[9]
Recognition
Voice of San Diego has won a variety of local journalism awards from the San Diego chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists for investigations exposing corruption at the San Diego Unified School District[10] and from the San Diego Press Club.[11][12]
