ALXnow launched in the fall of 2019 with a simple mission: to serve the entire Alexandria community with original, up-to-the-minute local news coverage. Now we need your help.
No, we’re not asking for donations. Instead, we need as many readers as possible to take a once-a-year, three-minute survey that will help us better understand how we can improve going forward.
Among the feedback we’re seeking:
- What types of stories should we prioritize for additional coverage?
- Where do our readers live and work?
- How can we improve in 2020?
Please click here to take the survey and let us know how we’re doing and how we can do better. Thank you!
