Dear Reader,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At VTDigger, we believe the future of our state depends on more than public service journalism \u2014 it also requires investing in the next generation of news readers. That\u2019s why your donation to VTDigger will do double duty<\/a> today: supporting independent journalism and<\/em> delivering a new children\u2019s book to a Vermont child<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Donate & send a book<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This week, we\u2019re partnering with the Children\u2019s Literacy Foundation (CLiF), a Vermont-based nonprofit that has brought books, author visits and interactive literacy programs to more than 350,000 children in local communities with the fewest resources. Often a book from CLiF is the first new book a child has ever owned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every donation we receive by Saturday will send a book directly to a Vermont child<\/a> through CLiF. Our goal is to send 350 books from 350 community-minded VTDigger readers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading is the foundation of community participation and civic engagement. Every child deserves access to stories, facts and ideas that expand their world. But in many Vermont homes, new children’s books are a luxury. Your gift today helps close that gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re so grateful to the 76 readers who have already stepped up and we only have a few days to inspire 274 more donors to help us reach our goal. Every gift, no matter the size<\/a>, brings us closer to delivering both trusted news and the gift of reading to Vermont families<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a thank you, if you become a monthly sustaining member at $20\/month<\/a>, you\u2019ll receive your choice of a hat or a tote bag from our summer merch drop while helping us invest in a more curious, informed and equitable Vermont.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your support powers journalism that holds leaders accountable and gives voice to Vermont\u2019s communities. And right now, it also opens doors for children, sparking curiosity and hope with every book delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us in building Vermont\u2019s civic future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neal Goswami
Managing Editor, VTDigger<\/p>\n\n\n\n
