Williston Observer: Help Your Hometown Paper

Donation protected
Can you help your hometown paper make it through the COVID-19 crisis? 

The Williston Observer has been publishing for 35 years and for the past 26 years has been locally owned and operated by Williston residents Paul & Marianne Apfelbaum. We hope to keep going for many years to come, but the current situation is affecting all of our advertisers (our only source of revenue), and that means less money to enable us to continue to publish the paper every Thursday.

Your donations will provide relief for the (hopefully temporary) loss of some of our regular advertisers who have been adversely affected by the crisis. Your donations will help to pay our staff, as well as the printing,  production and mailing of the paper. 

The Williston Observer is mailed to you each week at no charge, yet it is  very expensive (and a lot of work!) to get the paper to you every week. Please consider sending $25-$50, which equates to 50 cents - $1 per week for your  "annual subscription." Any amount is most welcome.

We feel a great responsibility to continue to serve the community we live in and love - and to deliver to you (in print and digital formats) the news you need and want. It is now more important than ever to stay informed and connected  - we love being a part of this community and hope we can continue to bring you the news (including uplifting stories) every Thursday!
Please share our fundraiser on Facebook and other social media if you are able.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Please know how much it is appreciated. 
-- Paul & Marianne
