To the 121 of You Who Already Said Yes

Thank you! You are one of 121 people who have already said yes to The Latino Newsletter.

As I start crafting the mission statement/vision plan later this week and share more about this project/organization, I wanted to take a moment to let you know that your decision to already subscribe to The Latino Newsletter has uplifted me in many ways.

This is a pre-launch to a pre-launch of the actual launch. That means that you are one of the 121 people who will see this idea go from an idea to an actual thing. (Whatever that thing is. That’s the fun part.) The goal is to create another new lane for journalists and opinion writers to get published and paid for their words. We will also amplify and feature the work of many talented voices delivering daily across several outlets.

This will be an intentional journey that the community will see from the very beginning. It will be a nonprofit model that will be free to anyone subscribing to it. It will have a Board, an operations side, and an editorial side.

If you want to support, there will be ways, but as I will explain in subsequent posts, I will share my insights about how best to get this type of important journalism funded. Stay tuned for more.

In the meantime, thank you again for jumping in now. To those asking how to support The Latino Newsletter, I only ask that you share the Subscribe link with others.

Abrazos,

Julio Ricardo Varela
