This site focuses on activities and events at the neighborhood level for Fulton, Fulton Hill, and Montrose Heights, and on larger events with direct impact on our community.

Get involved!

This is not a newspaper or magazine. We are a neighborhood news blog, a grass-roots publication with no staff reporters or editors. We are dependent on readers and contributors for all of our content.

This is a volunteer effort. If you are interested in helping in any capacity, please contact us. We need reporters, photographers, and community contact liaisons. We would especially like to find someone to report on events at the local schools, and would be delighted to have representatives of the local civic organizations. This is a chance to share your insights, knowledge, and opinions.

If you or your organization have information, news, or calendar events that should be publicized, please submit them for publication.

Advertising

We are advertising supported, at least to the degree that we hope to sell enough advertising to pay the costs of running the website. Fins out more about advertising on this site.

Who We Are

Greater Fulton News is based out of the Neighborhood Resource Center (NRC), a grassroots educational and cultural center fostering personal growth and community change in Greater Fulton Hill neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia.

The site was developed under a grant from the New Voices program at J-Lab in a partnership of the NRC, VCU’s School of Mass Communications, the Richmond Times-Dispatch, and NCB12.

The programming and format of this site is based on work by John Murden, who started Richmond’s first community news blog, Church Hill People’s News, and who has helped launch other community news blogs in the Richmond area.
