What they do
VERMONT TOURISM SUMMIT, INC. (VTS) MEETS ITS MANDATE IN TWO VERY SPECIFIC WAYS. THE FIRST is THROUGH THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE, WHICH is DESIGNED EVERY YEAR BY A PLANNING COMMITTEE CO-CHAIRED BY THE VTIC BOARD CHAIR (VOLUNTEER) and A CONTRACTED COORDINATOR. MEMBERSHIP ON THIS COMMITTEE is OPEN to ALL INTERESTED PARTIES. SECOND, VTS OFFERS SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS to VERMONT STUDENTS and TOURISM PROFESSIONALS WANTING to CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION BY PARTICIPATING IN THE CONFERENCE. THE AMOUNT and NUMBER of AWARDS GIVEN EACH YEAR is PREDICATED UPON VTS FISCAL RESOURCES, THE SUM of APPLICANTS and THE NATURE of THEIR REQUESTS.
Should I give to this charity?
Basic public information is available, but it is not enough to judge how well donations are used. Ask the charity for a current spending breakdown and results.
Plain answer: A tax form cannot prove that a charity is doing good. It can show how the charity says it spent its money—and point out questions you should ask.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $4,808 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
