Dear reader,
Vermont has lost 75% of its journalism jobs in the past quarter-century. The goal of our Fall Member Drive is to support critical election coverage this fall, and reinvest in Vermont’s press corps.
We only have one day left to raise as much as we can for news that serves Vermont. All gifts today and tomorrow will be MATCHED dollar-for-dollar by a group of generous Vermont donors. Will you join us?
When you read our stories, you see the result of countless hours of work — interviews, research, fact-checking and more. But what you don’t see is the dedication of our team, the long hours spent chasing leads, and the commitment to uncovering the truth for our community.
This behind-the-scenes work is essential to the journalism we produce, but it comes at a cost. And it’s not just the investigative stories that require this level of effort. Our daily news coverage also demands constant attention, from monitoring local events to providing timely updates on breaking news.
Your donation directly funds the work that goes into each and every story we publish. It’s your support that makes this level of reporting possible.
To help us across the finish line, a generous group of donors is matching all gifts received before tomorrow night, Sep. 22! And if you sign up to become a monthly sustaining member, your gift will be matched through the end of the year. Will you double your impact?
Whatever you can contribute helps. Together, we can rebuild Vermont’s press corps.
Sincerely,
Paul Heintz
Editor-in-chief, VTDigger
