Thank you for your continued support of the Houston County Herald. Readers like you make it possible for us to deliver reliable, community-centered journalism about the people, decisions and events shaping Houston County.
Last year, we asked readers to help us grow our reporting capacity. You answered that call, and your gifts are already at work. With funds donated by readers in 2025, we hired two new reporters: Shauna Reynolds, our Report for America corps member covering growth and development across Middle Tennessee, and Kara Aguilar, our new local government reporter.
Their work strengthens the journalism available to Houston County Herald readers. Shauna is following the development, infrastructure and population changes transforming our region. Kara is bringing added attention to local government, including the meetings, budgets, policies and public decisions that directly affect daily life in the area.
That progress is worth celebrating, but the need for strong local reporting continues. In 2026, we want to produce more journalism with local relevance, champion local stories and people, give local businesses a stronger platform, promote civic engagement and fill the gaps left by larger media organizations.
We are asking readers to consider making a tax-deductible gift of $25, $50, $100, $250 or more. This effort is made possible through our partnership with Report for America. You can give by clicking any of the donation buttons on this page.
Your support helps community-based reporting keep flourishing in Houston County and across Middle Tennessee. Every gift, at every level, helps us keep residents informed, connected and empowered. If you have questions, please email help@mainstreetmediatn.com or call 615-384-6212.
Sincerely,
Dave Gould, Houston County Herald owner
