Vermont Business Magazine HomeShare Vermont has launched its 2025 Experience Vermont Raffle, with prizes including local getaways and unique experiences, to raise funds in support of the nonprofit's mission to create more opportunities for people to access homesharing in Vermont.
For over 40 years, HomeShare Vermont has helped individuals stay in their homes, find affordable housing and strengthen local communities through shared living arrangements. In exchange for reasonable rent — an average of $360 per month — guests may provide services such as companionship, meal preparation or help getting to and from appointments.
As the state faces a severe housing crisis, HomeShare Vermont offers a proven, community-driven solution to create more housing opportunities for individuals from all backgrounds.
Each ticket purchased directly supports HomeShare Vermont’s mission to help more Vermonters find affordable housing through mutually beneficial shared living arrangements.
