Storytime: @trustfnd.com started because of trans journalists.

When unprecedented attacks on trans people escalated last year, I felt like I saw into the future of community-driven journalism—but also saw one big problem: fragmentation.

I wanted to build something to fix that.

If you reserved your Trustfund username, the wait is almost over. In about two weeks, you’ll receive an invitation to join Trustfund and multiply your newsletter growth. If you don’t have a username reserved, there’s still time.

In crowded spaces like Tiktok, Youtube, and social networks, standards are a powerful differentiator.

This is why we built Trust Promises—a feature that lets you highlight your editorial standards right where audiences consider supporting you.

In 2026, break the isolation.

Growing your newsletter is faster and easier if you don't have to do it alone.

We're getting ready to expand our beta. Reserve your collaboration handle at trustfnd.com

We are joining other newsrooms in the Climate News Task Force to provide a single hub for signing up for all our newsletters.

It’s a simple way to access climate coverage — and to support reporting that keeps powerful industries accountable.

Amazing post by Substack's departing COO.

Without necessarily aiming to, she's describing what is happening in journalism. Creators become founders, become networks, become institutions.

At @trustfnd.com we're building the network piece for trustworthy creators.

Trust in news is at an all time low. But it's too hard to support creators we *do* trust.

@trustfnd.com makes it easy for trustworthy creators to enter into Collaborations so audiences can support multiple creators in one go.

If you post to inform, not to sell, claim your username: trustfnd.com
