History

The Vermont Children’s Trust Foundation was established in 1991 as a 501 (c)(3) organization to raise private funds for prevention programs that promote the health and well-being of Vermont children and families. 

In 2009, the Foundation entered into an agreement with the State of Vermont to manage the Children’s Trust Fund on the State’s behalf. 

In 2022, the Vermont State Legislature made statutory changes- eliminating the Fund such that all dollars flow directly to the Foundation.  The Foundation now receives money through a state allocation, 100% of the money donated through the CTF Tax Check-off on line 23 of the Vermont State Income Tax forms.  This streamlined structure allows for reduced expenses, and more money being directed to programs serving children and families in Vermont.
