The Bedford Citizen Thanks its 2020 Donors

Thank you to all the donors who generously supported The Bedford Citizen during 2020. We had no idea one year ago what a challenging and news-filled year it would be! With the support of our donors, we were able to expand our reporting staff along with our efforts to bring you local news from local voices.

Our readers are at the core of everything we do, and the generous support of our donors helps us fulfill The Citizen’s mission of community-supported news for Bedford!
