Join our Newsroom Partnership Program
Help us shine a light on Flower Mound.
Why give?
-
✽
Strong communities have local journalists looking over how government money is spent, what services are provided, and other issues that impact residents and businesses.
A civically engaged town can attract new businesses and create well-paying jobs.
-
✽
Local news organizations have shrunk in recent decades. The Dallas-Morning News and Denton Record-Chronicle used to cover Flower Mound regularly, but don’t anymore. Without that oversight, residents lose valuable context and the ability to understand what is going on in their town.
We cut through social media rumors and misinformation to present the facts.
-
✽
This town was built by residents who pitched in to create something that they had a say in. We want to help continue that legacy.
We don’t parachute in just for the big stories and leave after a week. Flower Mound is our home. We care about how our tax dollars are being spent and want you to be a well-informed neighbor.

✽
It takes time to craft a story that makes a complicated issue digestible for the casual reader. We do everything by hand here. We meet with community leaders in person, attend or watch every town council meeting, and write stories from a blank Word document. AI is not used to research or write any articles on North Texas Sun. It is pure shoe leather journalism.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We are a for-profit company for tax purposes, but it is not our intention to get rich. No one gets into this business for that. We live in Flower Mound and genuinely want what is best for the community.
If your foundation can only make donations to a nonprofit, we are working to pair up with one for a fiscal sponsor relationship.
-
The money helps pay for printing costs, website management, and the time it takes to report and write well-researched and factual stories about Flower Mound.
-
Each sponsor level comes with recognition on our Newsroom Partnership Program page. With higher level sponsors, company and foundation names will appear on newsletters and our print issue.
-
Those who participate in the program will not get special treatment. The funding will not affect how we approach each story with objective reporting. As usual, no one will be able to read stories before publication or have any say in editorial decisions.
-
We welcome any assistance you would like to give. For smaller donations, we have a separate page.
