What a great opportunity
to demonstrate our community's contributions to Vermont! We're thrilled
to direct our Vermont charitable donations through the Gay &
Lesbian Fund-- it's a no-brainer.
Visibility
is worth a lot. That's why we donate through the Fund. It's a way
of creating community, making its presence known, and giving back,
all at the same time.
Since introduction of the Fund in May of 2006, the Gay & Lesbian Fund of Vermont has made awards to nonprofits committed to improving the health of our communities, the arts, civil rights, women's issues, education, the humanities, cultural preservation, and support for the most needy members of our society. The following nonprofits have been among
our award recipients to date (updated
