The Valley Breeze Newspapers is a locally owned and award-winning brand that provides free weekly newspapers to the northern Rhode Island community. With a circulation that surpasses any other paper in the region, The Valley Breeze has become a trusted and integral part of the community. Founded in 1996, the paper initially served the towns of Cumberland and Lincoln with a press run of 10,000 copies.
