Dear Reader,

VTDigger is lucky to have an inspiring board of trustees that is aware of the vital yet increasingly precarious role of local news organizations in our democracy.

In a generous gesture of support for our spring member drive, three board members are stepping up with a matching challenge. All one-time gifts today will be matched up to $500 and monthly gifts up to $50 per month will be doubled for one year.

Your gift will also:
• Send a new book to a Vermont child
• Enter you to win $100 to Guy’s Farm and Yard

If you value the work VTDigger journalists do, please join our board in supporting them with a gift today and double your impact. Today’s match challenge means that your $10 becomes a $20 gift. $200 becomes $400. If you become a monthly member at the $40 level, it will become a monthly contribution of $80 for the next 12 months. Will you join us?

I have long appreciated the news and information I get from VTDigger. Like you, I’ve been an avid news reader for years, an invested Vermonter and active member of my community. Now, I get to see up close how this newsroom earns reader trust every single day. I look forward to sharing more about that process with you in the coming months.

Sincerely yours,

Sky Barsch

CEO, VTDigger
