English: cross-border journalism to the people!
¡Hola!
From this borderland of dreams and struggles, we invite you to become part of a human bridge that transforms how our stories are told, by listening to and highlighting solutions.
Your support is vital to ensuring the continued delivery of verified information, strengthening our network of migrant journalists, who are part of your own community, and countering the misinformation that affects our families.
Community-based journalism in Spanish, which dares to amplify our stories, is under attack. Yet, we persist, inspired by the questions and solutions that emerge from our community.

Every dollar you donate will be matched by NewsMatch!
Let’s multiple your impact and together we will create spaces, solutions-oriented journalism, and heartfelt, authentic storytelling that reflects our cross-border community.

Will you join us in expanding this human bridge where genuine stories can flourish?
We began during the height of the pandemic as a group answering questions via WhatsApp. These days, thanks to partners like you, we have grown into a robust network. Our initiatives include:
- La Hora del Cafecito, where experts address questions about health, migration, and rights;
- the podcast Cruzando Líneas;
- our "Mosaicos" that travel across Arizona to share our stories;
- and our solutions-focused journalism, which helps the community navigate the challenges they face in pursuing their dreams.
And yes! We tell the stories that others choose to silence.

This work goes beyond mere words. At the border, we provide hundreds of migrants with reliable, real-time information, helping them understand their rights and legal options. We collaborate with partners on both sides of the border to provide access to information on mental health, the environment, and available services in Spanish. We create safe spaces for community dialogue—both in-person and virtual—because we know that unity overcomes fear. We also train border-based journalists to tell the stories that often go unheard.

All of our journalism is freely accessible to our community, but that does not mean it is free to produce. We want to lead by example and help heal our community and the news ecosystem through service-oriented journalism, free from extractive practices, rooted in an inclusive narrative, and featuring a level of fact-checking never before seen in Spanish-language media in Arizona.
How will these funds be used?
- To sustain our network across Arizona in Nogales, Tucson, Yuma, and Phoenix, as well as in Sonora.
-
We will also strengthen our solutions-based and
service-oriented journalism, expand our fact-checking efforts,
and provide training for citizen journalists.
We recognize that misinformation is increasing and that rural communities often face challenges in accessing accurate information. Our goal is to support you by serving as a catalyst for change, offering solutions-focused reporting that meets your information needs with reliable and trustworthy content. Help us to help them!
Our goal is $25,000.
Thank you very much for your support. Sending you a big hug (a hug from the soul).
¡Muchas gracias!
