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.

Jazz star Jamie Cullum is to perform a charity rooftop gig - with fans able to request the tunes he plays.The pianist and singer will play on top of the Shelter homelessness charity HQ in Old Street, London, on Tuesday 21 May.

The lunchtime show will also be streamed and fans can make requests on Twitter, the day after he releases new album Momentum.

Shelter chief executive Campbell Robb said: "This is the first time we've ever had someone perform live at our offices, let alone on our roof.

"It's great to have Jamie's support and we're really looking forward to hearing the new album."
