Independent journalism is more crucial than ever in a world flooded with misinformation and nonstop news cycles. Yet North Carolina lacks a central, trusted organization that truly understands our state’s political landscape, culture, and the fast-changing dynamics of social media. That gap is why we launched Influence NC, to equip North Carolinians with the tools and training they need to share reliable, pro-democracy information in their own communities and do some storytelling.
By supporting our work, you’ll help us train voters, influencers, and even elected officials to use social media more effectively—creating content that is factual, engaging, and tailored to local audiences. Our mission is simple but urgent: build a transparent, equitable platform for political communication that serves everyone, not just a select few. Your gift today will power this work and help strengthen democracy and up-to-date information sharing in North Carolina.
