Partner With MB
Melanin Bliss Media is 100% Black woman-owned and independent by design. There are three ways to be part of the work: subscribe for exclusive access, lend your expertise, or support the reporting directly. Partners fuel the investigations. They never touch the editorial. That wall never moves.
Three Ways In
Be Part of the Work
Become an MB Member
Members get MB first — early access to investigations, exclusive content and drops, custom merch, and direct communications from the team.
- Free · The Memo — $0
- The Insider — $7/mo · $70/yr
- Founding Member — $250/yr · capped at 100
Lend Your Expertise
MB is building a community of doctors, clinicians, researchers, and experts who want to join the conversation — through spotlight features or expert commentary on what we’re covering.
Right now this is an open door, not a paid placement: features are editorial, on the merit of the work. As MB grows, our intention is to compensate contributors.
Fund Independent Journalism
Partners fuel the investigations — they never touch the editorial. That wall never moves.
- Anonymous by default.
- Recognition is opt-in.
- Your support never shapes coverage.
- 100% founder-owned; no partner receives equity, ownership, or control. Ever.
- MB is an LLC, so support is patronage — not tax-deductible. It goes straight into the reporting.
Conference & Event Partnership
Sponsor the Equity Read
Bring Health Equity Journalism to your event.
Bring independent, on-the-ground coverage to your conference, summit, or series. Sponsoring organizations underwrite Equity Read coverage — and MB retains full editorial control, every time. You make the reporting possible. You never shape it.
- Anonymous by default · recognition opt-in
- No equity, ownership, or control. Ever.
- Sponsorship — never pay-for-coverage
How Partnership Works at MB
The Firewall
Independence First
No sponsor or partner chooses an angle, approves a piece, or is promised favorable coverage. Funding and editorial never meet.
Anonymous by Default
Your support is private unless you choose recognition. We protect partners the way we protect sources.
100% Founder-Owned
MB is wholly owned by its founder. No partner, at any level, ever receives equity, ownership, or control.
Make the Reporting Possible.
Whether you subscribe, contribute, support, or sponsor — you’re funding journalism that exists to keep our communities informed, and alive.
