How to Help

Vermont Independent Media, Inc. publishes The Commons and runs the Media Mentoring Project. The newspaper is dedicated to in-depth coverage of local issues and events in Windham County, to analysis of other news from a local perspective, and to providing a forum for communication across the wide social, economic and political spectrum of our population.

When you give to VIM

You support the in-depth journalism found in The Commons, the newspaper with news that is local, relevant and fearless.

You also support the free journalism training workshops of the Media Mentoring Project (MMP). These are held monthly in Brattleboro and Bellows Falls. The MMP also works with neighborhood and youth groups to encourage the next generation's interest in community journalism.

VIM relies on the good will and financial support of the people of Windham County. Thanks to the generosity and encouragement of VIM's early and current finders, The Commons began monthly publication in January 2006 and is now a valuable part of the local media landscape.
