Madison365 was founded in 2015 by Henry Sanders Jr. and A. David Dahmer, two experienced professionals in community development and journalism respectively. The idea for Madison365 came from their desire to create a platform that would use excellent journalism to start conversations, find real solutions, and build community among diverse groups in the Greater Madison area. Sanders, who had previously worked in various roles including at the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce and the Obama Administration, partnered with Dahmer, who had been the editor-in-chief of The Madison Times Weekly Newspaper for a decade. Today, Madison365 is operated by 365 Media Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Madison, Wisconsin, with Sanders serving as CEO and Publisher and Dahmer as Editor-in-Chief.Based in Madison, Wisconsin, Madison365 covers a wide range of topics focused on communities of color in the Greater Madison area. Their content includes local and national news, politics, community events, business, education, and culture. While not specifically focused on sports or entertainment, they do cover these topics when they intersect with issues relevant to their target communities. Madison365 delivers content through its website, podcasts, and various digital platforms, reaching readers across Wisconsin and beyond.**One interesting fact**: Madison365 organizes the Wisconsin Leadership Summit, which has become the state's premier professional development and community-building event for leaders of color. This showcases the organization's commitment not just to reporting news, but actively fostering leadership and community connections among diverse populations in Wisconsin.
