Ways to Support TVT

Invest in Tri-Valley Transit

Tri-Valley Transit, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit.
Contributions are tax-deductible.
Federal ID number: 03-0335768.

Please consider making a charitable contribution to Tri-Valley Transit. It is an investment in the economic, social, and environmental health of Central Vermont. Your donation is very powerful. Every $1 you contribute unlocks $4 of government grants for rides or $9 for buses and other necessary infrastructure.

Reliable public transit is an investment in people and prosperity. Economically, it helps riders get and keep jobs, stretches household budgets by reducing the need for costly car ownership, and connects shoppers and patients to essential goods and services. Socially, buses and Dial-a-Ride services keep neighbors connected—supporting independence, reducing isolation, and helping older adults age in place with dignity. Environmentally, every trip taken on transit instead of a single-occupant car reduces emissions and traffic, making our communities cleaner and more livable. Your support keeps these vital connections moving.
