Hey, its true. News business is tough and rely on advertisers or community support.
While EastCountyToday does not charge for our service, our stories, our event calendar or other forms of content we may put out, we do offer two ways to support this site.
- Donation (PayPal–click here) — donations could be one-time or monthly. You make the choice.
- ECT Club Member (a private Facebook group) — here you will get local alerts in real time and tidbits that may typically never make a news story or published on our main page.

How Much Should I Donate?
That is entirely up to you. Whether its $1 per month ($12 per year), $25 annually, or more, ECT is forever grateful for any donation while believing in this product.
By donating, you will help EastCountyToday continue to stay online and grow. We hope to continue to be your number one news source for providing local news in East Contra Costa County.
Keeping News Local
Local newspapers and websites are withering away each year. In small towns and communities across the United States, a local paper seems like it is becoming a thing of the past, but our goal is to keep the community informed on what is happening in our local government, schools, and community.
Every donation counts and again, thank you for your support.

Hi Mike! Video says No Stream on You Tube. Martha
this is a great way to see what is happening in Brentwood. Hopefully you can cover the sports from Liberty High School on this site since the Brentwood Press seems to only cover Heritage & Freedom sports.
What about the deer Valley students that robbed middle school kids with a gun? See SFGate article below
