What is the Louisiana
Economy Journalism Fund?

The Louisiana Economy Journalism Fund is a non-profit platform that helps fund our newly expanded business and innovation coverage across Louisiana. Administered by the Greater New Orleans Foundation, support from the business community for the LEJF is essential for us to continue expanding both our business journalism and our coverage footprint across the state. Thank you for your support in funding local journalism.

78% of our readers read Sunday business content. That tells us that our readership is hungry for more expansive coverage of business and innovation. We need your help to make that continue to happen.
