TODAY co-anchor Savannah Guthrie posted an emotional Instagram video on Feb. 24 announcing that her family is offering up to $1 million for information leading to the recovery of her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, who has been missing from her Tucson-area home for more than three weeks.

Guthrie urged the public to keep praying and said the family still 'believe in a miracle,' while acknowledging the painful possibility that Nancy 'may already be gone.'

Several outlets note the family framed the reward specifically for 'recovery,' meaning a safe return or locating remains.

Federal investigators are handling tips through the FBI tip line.

Law enforcement and federal agents continue to investigate.

Multiple outlets report investigators released doorbell-camera footage showing a masked person at the Guthrie home.

Evidence at the scene — including a trail of blood and a glove — has been processed.

One source says DNA from the glove did not match any profiles in the FBI database.

Reports note Nancy has health vulnerabilities (a pacemaker, mobility issues and daily medication needs), which heighten concern for her welfare.

The Guthrie family’s $1 million reward adds to prior offers from authorities and donors.

Several outlets note the FBI had previously posted $100,000, while other reports list combined earlier amounts differently.

Savannah Guthrie announced a separate family pledge to donate $500,000 to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to help other families searching for missing loved ones.

Across outlets, the emotional tone is consistent: Guthrie's message is pleading and devotional, asking for prayers while also appealing for information.

She used imagery such as "blowing on the embers of hope," and said "someone knows how to find our mom."

For the first time, she publicly acknowledged the family now must confront the possibility that Nancy "may already be gone."

Colleagues and viewers responded emotionally in several reports.
