When will I know if my organization has been selected to receive partner funds?

Partner fund notifications are emailed to the contacts provided in your NewsMatch application on a rolling basis (based on funder selection timelines). Generally, award emails start going out in late September and can extend as late as December.

Receipt of partner funds in NewsMatch 2024 does not guarantee that your organization will receive partner funds as part of NewsMatch 2025.

As of November 25, 2025, all pending partner funds have been awarded for NewsMatch 2025. Please reach out to newsmatch@inn.org if you have any questions.
