The New England First Amendment Coalition appreciates the support of all its donors and volunteers. The work we accomplish every day on behalf of the First Amendment and open government simply would not occur without your help. In particular, NEFAC would like to thank the following:
Legacy Circle
The New England First Amendment Coalition received in 2023 the largest gift in the organization’s history from the Estate of Gloria L. Negri, the late trailblazing journalist at The Boston Globe. The estate bequeathed $818,125 to the coalition for journalism education and programming. NEFAC renamed its annual New England First Amendment Institute — an annual multi-day investigative journalism training program — after Negri in her honor. The bequest is used to support and grow NEFAC’s current journalism education programs and services, such as the Negri Institute, NEFAC Mentors and 30 Minute Skills. It will also be used to create additional much-needed resources for journalists and newsrooms in the region.
