  • Citizen Stakeholder Tier | $2,500

    This is more than membership. This is a stake in the future of Philadelphia.

    Inspired by the Green Bay Packers’ public ownership model, this tier offers stakeholder ownership in Citizen Media Group, the nonprofit parent of Philadelphia magazine and The Philadelphia Citizen. Stakeholder shares carry no dividends, can’t be resold, and have no purchase limit — but they can be passed down. Stakeholders receive three years of benefits including invitations to our Stakeholder meeting and exclusive gatherings like the Civic Revival Retreat (including a lunch with Board Chairman David L. Cohen). You’ll also vote to fill an observer seat on the Board of Trustees, gain access to the Civic Connector Network, and more.

     

    New members are welcomed during special enrollment periods. Sign up for the waitlist to get notified of our next open enrollment:
