Mission: To provide information which guides community and suburban newspaper publishers to better identify and better fulfill future communication needs in changing communities through research and education.
The SNA Foundation is the only organization of its kind that focuses its efforts exclusively on suburban and community newspapers and supports their role as the leading local information providers, now and in the future, by providing information to help them transform in a digital world; thus helping them preserve and enhance the essential role they play in their respective communities — to serve and promote an informed and participatory local citizenship.
The SNA Foundation understands that community newspaper markets are unique and thus face different challenges and opportunities than their large metropolitan daily counterparts. That is why sponsoring specialized research and educational programs is critical in helping our segment of the industry continue to evolve as information needs and access methods change in local communities.
The Suburban Newspapers of America (SNA) Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable trust, is affiliated with Suburban Newspapers of America (SNA), the largest suburban and community newspaper trade association in North America, representing over 2,000 newspapers with more than 22 million in circulation.
