Join us for Better Utah’s Annual Fundraising Breakfast. Guests will hear from Better Utah’s Executive Director, Taylor Knuth, along with this year’s keynote speaker, Tara McGowan, CEO and Founder of COURIER Newsroom.

About Our Keynote Speaker:

Tara McGowan is the founder and publisher of COURIER, a fast-growing, values-driven national and local news network. Through COURIER, Tara is leading one of the most ambitious efforts in the country to close America’s widening information gap by delivering factual, accessible, pro-democracy news directly to the social feeds and inboxes of the communities most often overlooked by traditional media. 

This annual event is more than a breakfast; it’s an investment in the future of Utah. By supporting Better Utah, you’re helping build the communications, research, and accountability infrastructure that ensures government serves people, not special interests. Your support allows us to:

• Cut through political spin and show Utahns exactly how their representatives vote.
• Unify the progressive movement through professional messaging and coalition coordination.
• Elevate Utah values like stewardship, family autonomy, and community care as the foundation for progressive change.
• Build lasting infrastructure that strengthens democracy in Utah for generations to come.
