8 years ago, a billionaire laid us off + shuttered our newsroom. We had no funding + no idea what nonprofit news was. But we had a dream to build @blockclubchi. Today, we were named @EditorPublisher's Best Daily News Site. Never give up on your dream.✨ blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/17/blo…

Thank you to everyone who came out to support #ChicagoJournalism for this year’s 86th Award Ceremony. We couldn’t have done it without you! #CJA86 #ChiJournoAwards
