Direct donations may also be made online and will benefit Vermonters who have been affected by the floods. The donations will go to the Vermont Emergency Donations Special Fund for purposes of Emergency Management. For example, some of this funding will go to the Manufactured Home Improvement and Repair Program to remove and dispose of flood-impacted manufactured homes and/or grants to replace a manufactured home.

Bundles receive a voucher for the socks that must be redeemed with Darn Tough directly. You will receive instructions for redemption with your voucher.
