Just as COVID-19 brought the Green Mountain state to a near standstill in the spring of 2020, directly affecting thousands of Vermonters, Vermont Mutual responded with prompt distribution of a large portion of the relief funds immediately to the Vermont Foodbank and the Vermont Community Foundation. The two charitable institutions were chosen for the well established infrastructures and their ability to effectively assist fellow Vermonters in need.
In addition to the $1,000,000 directed to COVID-19 relief, the company also created an Auto Premium Payback Program, which resulted in nearly $5 million in premium payback to its customers.
