Dear Reader,

There are less than two weeks left in our Annual Member Drive and we are running behind. We only have 11 days left to reach our budget needs for 2023 and send 40,000 meals to the Vermont Foodbank by New Year’s Eve.

To help us climb this steep hill, a small group of generous donors has stepped up to match all gifts received up to $1,000. Make a gift today and your gift will go twice as far.

VTDigger operates with integrity and fierce commitment to our readers and the truth. Every day, we are taking action to bring Vermonters the transparency and accountability you deserve.

But at a time when many news publishers are announcing layoffs, we need your support.

We’re grateful to three donors from Brookfield, Hanover and North Bennington for stepping up with this significant match challenge. Please help us reach our goal with a gift in any amount up to $1,000 and your gift will be matched dollar for dollar.

Your contribution will also send 10 meals to the Vermont Foodbank.

When you become a member of VTDigger, your donation powers our nonprofit newsroom. We run a lean operation free from the legacy costs of a traditional newspaper. The bulk of our expenses are salaries for our reporters and editors, which means we can put more resources towards telling the stories that need to be told.

You can count on us. Can we count on you this year?

In pursuit of truth,

Jim Welch

Interim Executive Director
