I have such admiration for Pearls and Irritations. Thanks so much. Unfortunately my donation can’t match my admiration. Anonymous

We are grateful for every donation that we have received since we launched our campaign in August. Support from our readership and authors is what makes Pearls and Irritations the independent publication that it is, and makes it possible for us to publish every day and twice on Sundays in your inbox.

It supports us in growing our reach through social media channels – most recently we have developed our Instagram account further and our readership through this channel is not only growing daily, but also across generations. This is where we are are engaging the next generation of our readers, with your help.

We have just 9 days left for our tax deductible campaign. If you have been intending to donate, but haven’t had the opportunity to add your support, now is the time to post your donation.

No amount is too small, and every donation is appreciated and used to grow Pearls and Irritations’ voice across Australia’s media.

You can contribute your one-off donation here.

All donations are received with appreciation.

Postscript:

We have been touched that so many of our donors have also taken the time to share words of support with their donation.

An important cultural institution: privileged to be able to support. David James

Vital work, and love the frequency of content. We live in dark times that look rapidly darker by the day. Our leaders are unlikeable middle managers at best and complicit fiends on most other days. I appreciate your truth telling. Anonymous

Pearls and Irritations gives us information and opinions that the mainstream media do not publish – unfortunately. I only hope politicians of all persuasions read this valuable resource. Anonymous

Pearls and Irritations, fired by writers concerned with social & political realities. Each morning/s indispensable safety valve. Thanks. Stuart Rees

I receive P&I every day, look forward to it, I do hope that it will continue to inform people of the real truth instead of the “sanitised” MSM “News” that we’re all subjected to constantly. John Mackeddie

P&I has broadened my view and understanding of local and world issues, and is an essential counterpoint to the powerful monopolised interests invading msm including once trusted mastheads, diminished regional independent media, and the ABC. Anonymous

The Western media is so biased towards China. It is good to read balanced and intelligent news. Anonymous
