The W. Eugene Smith Fund supports independent photographers by funding grants that help keep our world informed and engaged. We at the Smith Fund are deeply concerned by the ongoing threat to journalists and journalism.
Over the years, with your help we have supported countless visual storytellers, helping to shine light in dark corners since 1980. Whether it is one dollar or more, we make sure your donation is used to support the visual storytelling of dedicated journalists around the world.
At this moment in history the work of journalists is crucial.
We thank you for your support.
