Dear Friends of The Hardwick Gazette,
Your opportunity to double a gift to The Gazette in our summer fund drive begins now.
Community members have offered a total of $5,000 in matching funds for the last days of the drive. Which means that your gift will be doubled if you make a donation right now. This offer will expire at the end of the drive, on Sunday, September 7, or when we’ve received contributions totaling at least $5,000.
You depend on The Gazette to bring you the news; we depend on you to make this effort possible. It’s a two-way street.
Help us end the drive on the high note that is crucial for our ability to deliver the news you expect. Give now to let us enjoy the Labor Day holiday knowing readers like you value The Gazette.
The Gazette, registered under the name Northeast Kingdom Public Journalism, is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, so your contributions are tax deductible.
If you’ve already responded during the drive, thank you very much for your support. If you’ve been waiting, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for. Take advantage of this opportunity to double the power of your support! Give to The Gazette today!
If you’re a monthly supporter, consider adding an additional $5 a month to your gift.
Call us at (802) 472-6521, mail your donation to PO Box 9, Hardwick, VT 05843 or visit hardwickgazette.org/donate to send your gift and help us take advantage of these generous matching gifts.
With gratitude,
