OUR STORY

What started in the 2020 pandemic as a weekly newsletter now serves as a platform that drives stories from our communities and fosters critical hope. 9 Millones provides tools and resources for Puerto Ricans worldwide to take control of their narratives. We create workshops to develop stories focused on the people representing the complexity of Puerto Rican reality.

OUR IMPACT

Instead of seeking views or clicks, we measure our impact by the emotions our stories evoke and their ability to inspire individual and collective action.
As a local news outlet, we also measure impact through our ability to generate employment opportunities for creators in the archipelago, thus supporting their right to remain in Puerto Rico.
