It’s never been easier to make a tax-deductible donation to the Chicago Maroon. Simply visit UChicago’s donation page (detailed instructions below), use the in-website donation function, or mail a check to:
The Chicago Maroon
1212 East 59th Street
Chicago, IL 60637
Why donate?
The Maroon is financially and editorially independent from the University, and your support helps us cover the news that matters to UChicago and Hyde Park’s communities. The Maroon is run entirely by its all-volunteer staff of UChicago students, making every gift crucial to sustaining our work.
Here’s how your donation makes a difference:
- Ensuring our print issues remain free for students, faculty and staff, and Hyde Park residents—providing important, independent reporting at no cost.
- Allowing us to produce special inserts and issues like our Chicago Principles Anniversary feature
- Funding website maintenance and hosting fees to ensure that our reporting is always accessible at chicagomaroon.com.
- Paying fees to access court documents and municipal records—vital sources for our continued reporting on the Trump administration’s impacts on Chicago and the University.
- Securing access to new equipment so we can expand our multimedia coverage.
- And more!
