Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: Your readers would be wise to know that the Alpha Initiative is not a recruitment drive authorised by the Anglican Church. It is simply an initiative by those members of the Evangelical wing of the Church of England and those churches associated with the use of this course who have paid for an advertising campaign which has caught the media's attention. Such dangerous right-wing "success theology" as is espoused by this course is not representative of Anglican theology or that of the Church as a whole.
