Support Everybody Wins! Vermont

Would you like to become a partner to Everybody Wins! Vermont? There are many ways to support our programs – and you’ll be in good company. Here are some ways you can help:

• Donate your time
  Our mentors are our program! For more information about becoming a mentor, click here.

• Make a donation to EW! VT’s general fund
  While we cannot run our programs without mentors, we also cannot run our programs without financial support. Your tax-deductible donation makes it possible for hundreds of children and their mentors to connect each week!  You may specify for your donation to support a specific program site or donate to our general fund. Either way, your contribution is greatly appreciated!

• Donate books
  At each school site, EW! VT maintains a mini-library for use by the students and mentors. We are constantly updating our book carts and replacing well-worn copies of well-loved books. If you would like to donate new, high-quality books to Everybody Wins! Vermont for our book carts, please e-mail or call us at (802) 229-2665. (Please note that EW! VT does not accept donations of old or used books. From time to time, we accept donations of used books in good condition for book sales or other events.)

• Shop Norwich Bookstore
  We have partnered with the Norwich Bookstore to spread the enjoyment of reading. With their new customer Rewards Program, they will give you a $10 coupon every time you spend $200 AND they will give Everybody Wins! Vermont the amount equal to 1% of your purchases if you designate us as your preferred partner. Visit them at 291 Main Street in lovely Norwich, Vermont or on the Web at http://norwichbookstore.com for more details and to sign up.

• Shop online at Amazon.com
  You can also support EW! VT by shopping at Amazon.com. Use the link at the top of this page and five percent of your purchase will be donated to EW! VT. It’s that simple!

Our Mentors

In 2011-12, 712 individuals volunteered as reading mentors. Mentors are role models for reading and for life.

Our volunteers come from many backgrounds and include bankers, police officers, writers, entrepreneurs, lawyers, educators, retirees, business men and women, artists, students, and more. Over the years, our mentors have volunteered more than 115,000 hours helping children in Vermont develop a love of reading. We appreciate their generosity, consistency, passion, and dedication.
