SUMMARY:India Currents Unscripted: Caregiving in Our Own Homes
DESCRIPTION:As India Currents begins work on a new series focused on aging in the Indian immigrant community\, we’re starting from a place that’s deeply personal: our own homes. \nIn this special conversation\, members of our team: Vandana Kumar\, Meera Kymal\, Snigdha Sen and Nandita Bose share their real experiences of caregiving: navigating uncertainty\, balancing work and responsibility\, making decisions without a roadmap\, and holding space for loved ones while figuring things out themselves. \nModerated by Anjana Nagarajan-Butaney. \nIt’s an honest\, behind-the-scenes conversation about what caregiving actually looks like. \nWe invite you as we open up\, reflect\, and begin shaping a larger conversation. \nReserve your spot now!!

SUMMARY:We Won 10 awards at the San Francisco Press Club Awards
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nLast week India Currents proved once again that with reader support\, we are an award winning team!\nWe won 10 awards for excellence in journalism on Dec 8 at the San Francisco Press Club Awards\, up against some pretty stiff competition!\nWith your support\, we continue to produce outstanding stories. Srishti Prabha was recognized for her coverage on the importance of desi grocery stores during the pandemic\, as were stories on Desi Voters by Jaya Padmanabhan\, Meera Kymal and Ritu Marwah. Winners included Avatans Kumar\, Ayanna Gandhi\, and Medha Sarkar\, for their Desi Voices commentaries. Our investigative series on transnational abandonment by Meera Kymal and Anjana Nagarajan-Butaney continues its winning streak. \nAs a nonprofit news organization\, we’re committed to telling stories about our community that might otherwise go untold. These awards confirm that the stories we cover and the people we represent really do matter!\nOur reader-funded newsroom can’t run without reader support. So\, a huge thank you readers for making so much possible.\nWe’re grateful that NewsMatch and local funders around the country believe in the power of community journalism. From now through the end of the year\, NewsMatch will DOUBLE EVERY DONATION you make.\nWe are more than halfway to our goal – we’ve raised $12\,400 from 86 friends of India Currents. \nVandana Kumar\nPublisher\nIndia Currents \n                                 Will You Help Us Get To A 100 Donors?

SUMMARY:We’ve accomplished a lot this year
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nAs we reach the end of 2022\, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the stories and projects that had the biggest impact with our readers this year. In particular\, we’re proud of our “Stop The Hate\, Spread The Love.” series which reported on an alarming uptick in hate crimes and incidents against Asian Americans. \nIndia Currents was the first publication to report an 8-minute anti-Hindu tirade against a Taco Bell patron who was picking up his order. As our story started making the rounds\, other local media picked it up. India Currents made a difference: the alleged perpetrator was identified and charged with a hate crime. \nHow do we move from hate to love? Our series includes portraits of mixed-race couples and will focus on people and initiatives attempting to bridge the divide. \nThis Stop The Hate\, Spread The Love series is just one example of the kind of work you’ve come to expect from us. Our reporting is independent\, inclusive\, and in-depth. Best of all\, it’s community driven and community funded. In other words\, we wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for you. \nEach story you read costs roughly $150 to produce. These stories need to be told. And you can help us continue to do this important work. \nWill you support independent journalism that works for you? \nGive nonprofit. Give today. \nMeera Kymal\nManaging Editor & The India Currents Team \nFrom now until December 31\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, up to $1\,000. For a nonprofit like us\, this is a big deal! \nInvest In Us

SUMMARY:Hatred Has No Home In Santa Clara County-Support IndiaCurrents
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader \n“These victims were stalked and robbed BECAUSE they were South Asian. That – to our eyes – is criminal hatred\, and he now stands charged with hate crimes.” \nJeff Rosen\, Santa Clara County DA writes an op-ed for India Currents denouncing a hate crime on sari-clad South Asian women. \nDo you care for your parents in your home? So many of us do – but finding help isn’t simple – the Khalil Family tells us why. \nOur professional high schooler intern shares what teens are talking about – Does Devi Finally Have Sex? Check out Medha’s review of Never Have I Ever (Season 3) in the Movies Section. \nWhether it’s the midterms or as Chaplains\, desis are showing up to make good on their civic responsibilities. Nicely done! \nOn a more somber note\, after a year and a half\, we conclude our reporting project on the impact of domestic violence on our community. Some tough lessons learned. \nSo\, with Thanksgiving around the corner\, as we gather and give thanks\, it’s a moment to reflect on those who cannot. \nDon’t forget to share your Thanksgiving stories with us and show your support for India Currents! \nFrom now through the end of the year\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times or double your one-time gift\, all up to $1\,000 per individual. \nA little goes a long way in our reader-funded newsroom. \nThank you & Best Wishes\nMeera Kymal\, Editor & The India Currents Team \nI SUPPORT INDIACURRENTS(click here)

SUMMARY:Support Our Community Funded Newsroom
DESCRIPTION:Dear Reader\, \nAs an India Currents reader\, you already know that we prioritize community storytelling over profits. Throughout our 35-year history\, our mission has remained steadfast – to be the voice of the community. Each week\, our writers and editors work tirelessly to share the stories of our community: its triumphs\, its tragedies\, and its challenges. \nWe strive to produce public service journalism you can trust. This has become increasingly important over the past two years. Amid the uncertainty of a global pandemic\, India Currents has aimed to be a source of deeply researched\, trusted information. \nThis is essential work\, and it wouldn’t be possible without the support of readers like you. We are a non-profit news organization\, which has always remained free to all who want to read it. \nThat’s why we’re excited to share that we have an opportunity to make your donation go even further this year through NewsMatch\, a collaborative fundraising movement to support independent\, public-service journalism like ours. \nHere’s how it works. \nStarting TODAY: until December 31\, NewsMatch will match your new monthly donation 12 times\, or double your one-time gift\, up to $1\,000. Additionally\, we are excited to announce that India Currents Foundation has been selected to receive Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) partner matching funds. The first $4\,000 we raise will be matched twice — once by the NewsMatch national fund and once by the DEI partner fund. \nThis bonus was made possible with support from Knight Foundation and the Heising-Simons Foundation. \nIf you believe in the work India Currents is doing\, will you give today to triple the impact of your donation? \n                                             Yes\, I support India Currents \nWith gratitude\,\nVandana Kumar\nPublisher\, India Currents \nP.S. Please help us spread the word! Do you have friends and colleagues who share your commitment to supporting journalism like ours? Forward this email to them (and thank you in advance!).
