 A Real Difference
Real Change is Seattle's weekly activist publication with an ear to the street. Real Change readers are educated, socially-concerned, and loyal. Our publication is sold by Seattle's homeless, and helps them earn the money they need to get ahead. Each month, more than 200 different vendors are out selling our paper throughout the Seattle area. Real Change is a hand up, not a handout.

Real Numbers
Over the past nine years, Real Change has grown from a monthy to a weekly publication with a paid circulation of 12,000 per issue. Our vendors pay 35 cents a copy for their papers, which are then sold on the street for a dollar donation. Real Change doesn't sit around gathering dust on store floors. Each issue sold is purchased by an interested commuter.

Real Value
When you spend your ad dollars with Real Change, you not only help an important project grow, you get a great deal. If you compare our ad rates to similar publications, you will find our rates beat the competition, and we have better circulation.

Our marketing surveys show an extraordinarily diverse readership from all over the Seattle area, reaching as far away as Vashon Island and Redmond. Our typical reader is a socially concerned, college educated woman in her late 30s, earning $30,000 or more annually.

Sales are concentrated in the downtown area, and focus on commuters. It is estimated that 165,000 people commute to the downtown area daily. Our vendors can also be regularly found in the University District, Wallingford, Capitol Hill, and other areas of Seattle, as well as on the Eastside.

Advertising with Real Change is a way to reach out to the community and give something back at the same time.

Please consider an investment in Real Change. We're a good deal in a good cause.
