We’re launching a campaign to make each new Vox Membership go twice as far. This holiday season, when someone joins Vox as an annual member, we’ll match their purchase by giving a free annual membership to a person who wants to be part of our community but can’t currently afford access. It’s a simple way for you to support Vox’s journalism and share it with someone who needs it.
Vox Members enable us to produce the journalism you rely on, and we couldn’t do it without their support. But we also understand that, for some this season, a membership is out of reach. Your support helps us to keep Vox accessible to as many people as possible.
How the Vox Membership Match program works
When you purchase an annual plan at any point from November 24 to January 5, Vox will give one full year of access to an individual who applies for a membership. Your membership will still give you all the other benefits of being a Vox Member: unlimited reading on our website, ad-free podcasts, and access to exclusive videos and livestreams on our new Patreon community — but it will also enable the same perks for somebody in the Vox community in need.
If cost is a barrier for you: We want our membership community to reflect the breadth of our audience. If you’d like to be a Vox Member but cost is standing in the way, you can submit a brief application for a free matched membership made possible by another reader’s purchase. Free memberships will be activated starting in January.
Thank you for your support this holiday season and throughout the year.
