We are hosting a fundraiser at this year’s Maggotfest to support our summer journalism internship program. The fundraiser is in memory of Spencer Veysey who was a prominent member of Missoula’s rugby community, and an investigative journalist for MTIP. Spencer, who began his tenure with MTIP as an investigative journalism student, was instrumental in freeing seven innocent people from wrongful incarceration. All donations will directly support the work of MTIP’s summer journalism intern. Go to the link in our bio to learn more!
