This year, we have re-tooled how we are doing the TV interviews, creating a WEEK of studio time and expanding our time slots to result in a polished production without the complications of a LIVE Broadcast. This will result in 50 stand alone pieces and 500 minutes of Mission & Need Statements for 50 local Non-Profit Organizations!
To qualify for the BOLD Days of May, your organization must be in good standing with the State of CA and the Fed., have a valid 501c3, and be compliant with the DOJ by May 1, 2026. Our goal this year is to raise at least $100,000 collectively and achieve $100,000 in Match Funds!

In 2025 Access Humboldt launched a regional fundraising initiative for Humboldt County's 501c3 Non-Profit Organizations. The region quickly banded together with sponsors like PG&E and a Anonymous Philanthropist to see how much money we could raise in one day for several organizations at once. Access Humboldt broadcasted 5 hours LIVE on Cable Television, YouTube, KZZH 96.7 LPFM and Streaming; benefiting 24 Organizations with 10 minute in-depth interviews two weeks before the Giving Day that brought attention to the funding crisis at hand.

Over 200 Minutes of Mission and Needs
Over 200 Minutes of Mission and Needs
You may have watched on May 8th as Access Humboldt Executive Director, Christina Marie interviewed 24 of our local Non-Profit Organizations in an exciting "Speed Dating" format consisting of 10 minute time slots. As fate would have it, we had some technical difficulties that limited the quality of what we did.
Each Organization received the best edit of their segment in the weeks following to use for fundraising in the community or however they saw fit. These videos can be found HERE.
BOLD Day of TV re-ran throughout the month of May to bring greater awareness to our local Non-Profits' needs before the launch of BOLD Day Of Giving.
The 24-Hour Fundraising Frenzy
The 24-Hour Fundraising Frenzy
You gave BOLD! The BOLD Day of Giving challenged Humboldt County to come together in a 24-hour event that fostered collaboration between Humboldt's Non-Profits, Donors, and Partners. Together we inspired more regional giving by partnering and providing incentives & prizes. We inspired more volunteerism for organizations in Humboldt county, too. When you participate in BOLD Day Of Giving annually, YOU are informing, inspiring, and growing philanthropy in Humboldt County and beyond.

"I’m serving on the Board of Access Humboldt because I strongly support locally created content, whether it be news or creative arts. It’s important that our community has an organization that supports the content creators of Humboldt County and provides a place for our youth, friends, & neighbors to learn how to share their voices. "
Gregg Foster
Executive Director, Redwood Region Economic Development Commission
"I serve on the Access Humboldt board as a representative for local Cities because I believe in the importance of government transparency and public access to information. I’m committed to ensuring that local governments remain open, accountable, and accessible to the communities they serve. Access Humboldt plays a vital role in empowering the public through media and communication, and I’m proud to support that mission."
Pam Powell
Assistant City Manager/City Clerk, Eureka, CA
"I volunteer with Access Humboldt because as a parent and educator I know the value of community-focused, not-for-profit media. No other source brings me the kind of content I find on Access Humboldt radio and cable channels, their archives are a precious open source of community history and I admire their willingness to work with any member of the community to get their voice to the airwaves. Like every institution of democracy, community media will only be as strong as we make it!"
Aaron Donaldson
Arcata Resident, Lecturer in Communication Studies at Cal Poly Humboldt
"I donate to Access Humboldt, because I deeply believe in independent productions, sharing cultures, learning new things, and building empathy. Access Humboldt is uniquely positioned to share media created by our friends & neighbors in an authentic, gritty way--unclouded by commercialism. You can learn so much about a community by tuning into locally made content. What will our channels say with you?"
Christina Marie
Humboldt Resident, Executive Director of Access Humboldt
"I support Access Humboldt, because it is an essential bastion of all the values I associate with the best of the USA: liberty, freedom of expression, inclusion, equity. You might say that Access Humboldt is a place where our Bill of Rights comes to life.
Access Humboldt provides a crucial watchdog function, bringing a wide variety of public meetings right into your home: Board of Supervisors sessions, council meetings for all six of our cities and what’s going on in oodles of governmental commissions too.
Most especially, Access Humboldt provides a video platform for all local points of view and the staff will teach you how to share yours. You make it; Access Humboldt will run it.
Not a source of heavily curated content, but a place for all video content. Not censored, not edited to please those not-so-mythical “powers that be.” Not financed by any government or commercial interest and so not muzzled by those entities either.
Like all those cherished American ideals, Access Humboldt lives its mission best through the full participation of all of us. And, as with voting, your voice is heard when you use it.
Access Humboldt is the home of true media freedom, living its slogan every day:
Local Voices Through Community Media."
Molly Cate
Fortuna Resident, Volunteer Board Chair, Access Humboldt
"I have been involved with Access Humboldt since 2017. I believe news and information created by local storytellers and citizen journalists is essential for a healthy and safe community."
Jane Callahan
Member, Access Humboldt Board of Directors
"Local media voices are essential for healthy communities. They foster learning, build community connection, and boost awareness of the issues impacting people and the places they call home.”
