Keep Community News Alive.
Keep Printed Newspapers Sustainable.
Now more than ever, news organizations and publishers are increasingly leaning on reader generated revenue to help them survive. We need your support! Beginning in 2020, the South Hills - Mon Valley Messenger has begun asking our readers to play a larger role in keeping our newspaper sustainable by becoming a 'Messenger Member', or by making a financial contribution.

Contributions of any size help us to fulfill our mission to create a more informed public.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a recurring contribution?
A recurring contribution means your donation recurs automatically on a monthly or yearly basis via your credit card that we keep on file. This provides the South Hills - Mon Valley Messenger with the sort of predictable revenue that allows us to plan budgets, and it helps eliminate renewal communications by mail, telephone or e-mail.
Can I send my donation by mail?
Yes! Simply fill out this contribution form and mail a check or money order made payable to the South Hills - Mon Valley Messenger, and include the words "reader contribution" in the memo line, and mail it to:
P.O. Box 13363
Pittsburgh PA., 15243
Are my contributions tax deductible?
No. Contributions or gifts to the South - Hills Mon Valley Messenger, while vitally important, are not tax deductible. Your contribution or gift is not a 'donation' - but rather a financial contribution to help us continue to produce the product and services we provide for the community.
