Dear reader,
In the final days of 2024, we want to take a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come together — and how far we still need to go.
Give today and your gift in any amount up to $500 will be tripled to help VTDigger keep digging on your behalf in 2025.
Since 2009, VTDigger has grown from a one-woman operation to the state’s most robust newsroom.
With 22 reporters, editors and photographers, we’ve published 2,605 stories this year, which were read 12 million times by Vermonters like you.
VTDigger is not only a place to find timely news, it’s also a place to connect and debate.
The 418 reader commentaries we published provided an opportunity to exchange opinions and hear differing points of view.
And we’re always listening to you. Roughly one-third of VTDigger stories begin with a tip.
Thank you for sending us 1,599 tips in 2024 and helping us stay connected to the stories that matter most.
But there’s one more important number:
We still need to raise $193,317 by December 31 to reach our goal, and we’re currently 64% of the way there.
Can we count on you to help us finish strong? Your gift today will go three times as far thanks to a group of generous Vermont donors.
With your help, we’ll continue growing and connecting Vermont with the essential journalism that informs, educates and holds the powerful accountable.
Thank you for your continued support. We couldn’t do it without you.
Sincerely,
Paul Heintz
Editor-in-chief, VTDigger
