Dear Readers,
VTDigger has been reporting on Vermont’s environment since we launched in 2009. Whether the news is related to wind, solar or nuclear power, watershed health, agricultural policy or land use, VTDigger holds government officials accountable with accessible, accurate reporting.
Environmental reporting is complex and we’re proud of the ability of VTDigger reporters to make the stories about Lake Champlain cleanup, PFOA contamination, or downtown redevelopment easy to follow over time.
This work happens because our readers support us. Thank you!
If you haven’t yet given, now is the time. Donors from the Sustainable Future Fund and the Gay and Lesbian Fund of Vermont are matching every gift up to a total of $15,000.
Your dollars are used to produce excellent investigative reports like our PFOA contamination series documenting industrial pollution in Bennington County.

Contributions from readers support our educational forums, like the event we just had at the Flynn Center on the costs of cleanup for Lake Champlain. That forum hosted three passionate advocates for Vermont’s watersheds, each coming at the issue from a unique perspective. Hundreds of readers attended our events this year and thousands more can watch the livestreams and the recordings that we post on VTDigger.org.
Thanks to your generosity we have raised $231,073 toward our end-of-year goal so far. We still have $118,927 left to go and need your help to get to the finish line by Dec. 31st.
Thank you so much for making a contribution this year. Without reader support, we simply would not be able to do our work. We are thankful for each and every gift.
If you can join as a monthly donor at the $10 per month level, we’ll send you one of our new First Amendment reporter’s notebooks, or if you can make an annual gift of $150 or more, we will thank you with one of our new winter hats.
Donate today to support our reporting.
