A New Schedule for the Reporter

Jennifer Stockdale • January 3, 2022

Each month, we receive additional requests from members to receive a digital-only copy of The Reporter. For some members, it is easier to fit reading a digital copy into their schedule, and for many, the request comes from a desire to be more sustainable in their everyday lives. We also know, based on our 2021 member survey results, that a majority of you still enjoy receiving a hard copy of The Reporter and read it regularly.

It is with this feedback in mind, that GBU will change to a quarterly format for The Reporter for 2022. This new schedule will allow us to bring you seasonal, timely information, while saving more than 280 trees each year! It also allows our team to bring you interesting content between issues via The Reporter website and the GBU Life Member Community.

With the new format, if you are receiving a mailed copy of The Reporter, you will receive four issues per year in January (Winter), April (Spring), July (Summer) and October (Fall). If you subscribe digitally, you will receive one mailed copy per year with our annual Privacy Policy Notice as well as any additional issues that we are required by law to deliver of any notice, report or statement, including notice of election and all amendments to the Articles of Incorporation or bylaws of GBU. If you wish to receive these official-notice issues electronically as well, you can digitally opt-in by going to inside.gbu.org/digital-opt-in.

We are looking forward to reaching out to you each season with new and interesting content in 2022. We love producing each issue of The Reporter for you, and we hope that you enjoy reading it just as much!

Sincerely,

The Reporter Team

The GBU Life Scholarship Awards support students in college, trade programs, non-college programs, and graduate school, helping them achieve their dreams, setting them on a career path and realizing life goals. Since its founding, the GBU Foundation has awarded 4,500 scholarships and educational grants totaling more than $3.2 million. In 2025, 215 members received $226,000 to support their two‑year, four‑year and graduate studies. Here’s a look at where the rubber meets the road — as we check in on past grantees to see how their scholarship awards have helped them stay on course, where they are now, and where they hope to be in the future.
