On Oct 14th 2016, The Seattle Globalist is hosting the third annual Globie Awards. The event highlights our best writers and a “Globalist of the Year” — a Seattleite doing outstanding global work. We expect more than two hundred people to attend this year, and we hope to raise $45,000 to support independent reporting of local-to-global issues here in Seattle and the cultivation of diverse new writers.
The Seattle Globalist is a nonprofit online news publication and educational organization dedicated to elevating diverse voices through media. We publish work by more than 500 contributors, train youth journalists and lead community media workshops.
Why sponsor the Globie Awards?
