Vendors will now earn $1.85 per issue instead of $1.10 for every magazine sold.

Your donation will ensure the media outlets below can continue to produce investigative stories, highlight Chicago’s vast culture, and report local news that matters to you.

Why now?

Together, Chicago’s local and independent media represent our communities’ voices: Black and Brown voices, immigrant voices, LGBTQ+ voices, workers’ voices, and more.

StreetWise has not increased the price of our magazine to the vendors or customers since 2008! It was only the second increase in the 30-year history of StreetWise.

The cost of living has gone up 34% since 2008. A dollar's worth of goods in 2008 would cost $1.34 today. Our vendors deserve more money in their pockets to offset the rising costs of food, transportation and housing.

StreetWise magazine is an award-winning weekly publication that also serves as a platform for people with lived experience to share their stories and their views as writers and more.

Selling StreetWise is a Job

Thanks to generous support from local foundations, your donations to individual outlets will be matched.

North Lawndale Community Newspaper Paseo Podcast Pigment International Polish Daily News Rebellious Magazine for Women Rivet

Selling StreetWise isn’t begging, and it isn’t asking for charity. It’s a job. Our vendors are self-employed micro entrepreneurs who build relationships and create connections between and across communities that change perceptions about homeless and low-income individuals.

The new price of $3, with vendors paying $1.15 for their papers, means each paper sold nets the vendor a solid $1.85. It raises the floor so that our vendors earn a wage that is worth their while. It’s time for this to happen.

Soapbox Productions and Organizing South Side Weekly Street Level: Mildsauce.com Streetwise

We talked with our vendors and received feedback from some of our customers and supporters. We have nearly unanimous support for the price increase. Now is the time.

The price increase, by expanding one of the most reliable income sources we have, will give StreetWise vendors an income they need to thrive, and not just survive.

Thanks to our partners in this campaign:

Our Vendors Deserve a Raise!

Thank you to the following foundations for their support: MacArthur Foundation, Joyce Foundation, Joseph and Bessie Feinberg Foundation, Square One Foundation and Crossroads Fund.

Will the Fowlers and their guests evade the threat rattling at their door, or will they open the door and invite it in?

Milwaukee Ave., October 14 -29, Thursday - Saturday 8 p.m., Sundays at 3 p.m. $20 at theimpostorstheatre.com

SPORTS

I am a work in progress. Learn ing how to deal with changes was the best thing for me—and StreetWise was, and is, a huge part of that growth. Adapt ing that new behavior to my daily activities has been key. In 9 years, I’ve gone from Ven dor QAT (Quality Assistance Team) to, now, Field Supervi sor, and I’ve worked hard to be the best John Hagan and StreetWise representative I can be. I’ve learned how to sell better—the magazine and, perhaps most importantly, my self—and I feel good.

That’s impressive you were able to elevate within the organization in such a, relatively, short time. Was—and is—it tough to accept this role in regard to your co-work ers?

The thing is, though I feel very capable of being one of the best vendors for the job, there were and are quite a few others who would, also, be excellent for the job. Now, while I’m in the position, my motivation every day is to represent my coworkers in the way I’d want to be represented. Whatever it has taken—within my power— to keep StreetWise alive, I’ve done…and I’ll continue to do so.

How long have you been marching with the soldiers of StreetWise? I’ve been picking them up and putting them down for 9 solid

years. Feels longer. Weird to even think about living with out StreetWise.

Tell me, is there anything Street Wise could offer that would increase your growth even more?

Computer training. I mean, I’ve learned a lot over the years in regard to office-work— leading orientations, build ing I.D. badges, copying and printing, laminating random items—so I’m grateful for that; that said, I’d love to learn more about computers as, like, an of ficial student. I know I could find a class somewhere, but I’d be more comfortable with, first, doing it in-house.

So, what’s up with SportsWise? SportsWise has taught me the value of teamwork; how pieces create a whole. Joining the two legends 5 years ago, it’s been great. Through the pandemic, much of our information and opinions were silenced in that magazine sales were really low; even so, we—me, Don, and

Russ, along with Patrick— have kept focus. And we’re only getting better.

Man, I’m proud to say I’ve run with you celebrities for over 3 years now. And I do mean “celebrities,” because, prior to my StreetWise time, I saw y’all’s headshots and read y’all’s words in StreetWise ev ery week. Even wilder was meeting y’all in person. Sincerely.

So, John, any last words for the people? Thank you, StreetWise, for helping me to strengthen my independence, plus helping me learn how to deal with the pub lic. Gaining these has helped me to be more decisive and much more stable.

I have achieved.

RUSS ON JOHN

John and I’ve been working together for 9 years—this man knows his sports. Fact-checks like a college student. That’s right: put in the work that a

professional should. Just one thing, John: the Sky and the Lady Blue Demons are where it’s at! C’mon, brother!

DON ON JOHN

Like Russell mentioned, John knows his stuff. How coaches coach, how players work out in the offseason—things we take for granted when talking wins and losses—John gets this info for us. Rounds us out, so to speak. Very smart.

PAT ON JOHN

Beyond what the other Sports Wise guys wisely noted, in regard to his actual in-office StreetWise work, John goes above and beyond. Most times, I don’t have to ask or say anything: The man’s on it. AND…that…friggin’…voice!

John’s speaking voice and per sonality are made for sports. Some network—radio, online, whatever—better snap him up!

OPEN HOUSE CHICAGO
