Supporting Sustainable Journalism in Birmingham/Bloomfield
A Decade of Excellence
Ten years ago, a dedicated team of publishing professionals came together with a shared vision: to create an independent newsmagazine that would serve the Birmingham/Bloomfield area, a region known for representing the best of Oakland County. This vision was not only about providing high-quality journalism but also about contributing to the community’s sustainable development.
Unrivaled Quality
Today, we are proud to offer a monthly news publication that stands out in Oakland for its quality and excellence. Our commitment to delivering top-notch content has made us a household name in the local communities, where we have been distributing our newsmagazine free of charge. However, to continue our mission and support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we need your help.

Your support ensures that we can maintain our independence and continue to offer valuable insights and information to our readers.
