Newsmatch 2025: Why Donate to the Anchor?

This annual report was originally published in the February 2022 edition of the Anchor, and details our efforts to create a new nonprofit news source, as well as the donors and sponsors who made that possible.

Fifty-one local businesses, nonprofits and churches stepped up to sponsor the first two issues of the Harpswell Anchor. On the evening of July 21, we invited them all to join us at the School House 1913 restaurant to meet our new editor, JW Oliver. The event also gave us an opportunity to thank these organizations for their support.

Do you own or manage a business in Harpswell? The Harpswell Anchor wants to hear from you — and not just to talk about sponsorships.
