Editorial Policy and Donor Transparency
CivicStory is funded by donations from individuals, sponsorships from nonprofit organizations and corporations, and grants from foundations. We maintain editorial independence on all videos and reporting. During video production, CivicStory may share video rough edits with story subjects and/or video funders for purposes of fact-checking and accuracy.
We offer explanatory video stories based on civics-oriented activities and topics that are relevant to the whole citizenry in a community. We normally do not offer political or financial news, spot news, or long-form investigative journalism. If funding for a video is received through an organization with a connection to the subject of the video, we acknowledge the sponsor on the video itself, and in the video caption on the website.
CivicStory accepts corporate sponsorship of special video projects and events, and, in general, aims for diversified funding sources. We do not accept corporate advertising.
