THANKS FOR KEEPING THE TIDES AFLOAT
We are incredibly grateful to the more than 400 individuals, businesses, and foundations who have given generously to support local news in Swampscott.
As a news organization, we want our readers to know where our funding comes from. We believe every contribution matters and reflects the community effort that defines the Swampscott Tides. That’s why we list all donors here in alphabetical order, regardless of amount.
We are respectifully noting our generous donors who are now deceased by placing asterisk in front of their names. Their memory lives on through the Swampscott Tides.
We strive to keep this list accurate, so if you have questions or corrections, please reach out at cluck@swampscotttides.org. And if you’d like to become a donor and see your name included as a donor, consider making a gift today!
