Thank you for believing in the power of community stories.

When John McGivern sits down for coffee with a small-town entrepreneur or walks through a family-owned business that's been serving the community for generations, your support makes those conversations possible. Every story we tell strengthens the fabric of Midwest communities - and you're now part of that mission.

On the first day that Main Streets became real, we created this non-profit so that our mission can be supported financially by those who care, like we do, about helping neighborhoods and communities succeed.

Our goal is to cover our costs:

Costs for travel, for talent, for producers’ time, for production time and equipment.

If we don’t cover those costs, we can’t make the show. It’s that simple.

Thank you for believing in the power of community stories.
