IRA Rollover
You may want to consider using the Charitable IRA Rollover option to make a gift to Vermont Public. If you are 70½ years old or older, you can make a donation of up to $100,000 directly from your individual retirement accounts without first having to recognize the distribution as income. The IRA charitable rollover is very popular with taxpayers and beneficial to charities. It’s a unique way to support Vermont Public's mission as an essential and trusted independent voice for news, information, music and cultural exploration for the people of our region. Checks can be sent to:
