Columbia Community Connection was established in 2020 as a local, honest and digital news source providing meaningful stories and articles. CCC News’ primary goal is to inform and elevate all the residents and businesses of the Mid-Columbia Region. A rising tide lifts all boats, hop in!
Without media reporting on important local issues and happenings in the Mid-Columbia region, we lose government accountability, we miss out on positive local reflections, important notices, and much more.
We’ve made it our mission to bring our communities closer together by improving access to honest local reporting.
And we’ve built a service that is free, paperless, updated daily and is published in both English and Spanish. Whether you’re sitting on the porch enjoying your morning coffee, or on the go, Columbia Community Connection is at your fingertips with our convenient digital formats.
You can help us build equity and lift our communities up by choosing one of our small monthly donations below.
All donations go to employing local people, who work hard every day to build and maintain this service we can all enjoy. Can we count on your support?
Great question, there are a number of reasons why an accessible news information source is an important feature of a vibrant community.
Almost all of us benefit from free access to local information. In a busy community such as ours, there are many important community updates that are circulated almost weekly, and without a news service, organizations often struggle to get vital messages out.
As you know, fewer and fewer people are subscribing to papers being delivered for a range of reasons, including cost, environmental reasons and changes in technology. This service is at peoples fingertips, in two languages and is constantly updated with news and other community information. Our communities deserves access to this important information conveniently and free of charge.
Our community needs a voice. We’re dedicated to giving a voice to those that need it . Through our service we allow schools, non-profits, support organizations and others to achieve their communication goals without additional and unnecessary expenses.
Great content requires experienced, dedicated professionals. Help us create jobs locally for writers and creatives.
