Support Sojourns
Your gift helps sustain Sojourns, from sunrise to sunset.
As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, Sojourns relies on community support to fulfill our mission of providing accessible, integrative healthcare to anyone who wants it.
Your gift — whether one-time, recurring, or made in honor or memory of a loved one — creates lasting impact by helping Vermonters access quality care.
In 2010, insurance and patient payments covered nearly all of what it cost to run this clinic — about 95%. Today, that number has fallen to 75%. Reimbursement hasn't dropped; the cost of delivering this kind of care has simply grown. The reality is that the cost of the healthcare we provide continues to outpace what insurance and patients can cover, leaving us with a gap that has quietly widened to 25% of our operating costs. Apothecary sales help close the gap, but individual giving and grants are critical to closing it — a reminder of just how directly each gift affects whether Sojourns can meet the year ahead.
What people are saying
“Sojourns has an ‘aura’ - the air, touch, healing experience…every time I came out of an appointment, I felt pampered emotionally. They listened to me.”
— Sojourns Patient, Westminster, VT
Who We Serve
Since 2023, the number of patients we serve has grown 159%. Today, we serve 1 in 15 people in Windham County, along with patients from 20 states. In 2025, half of our patients relied on Medicare or Medicaid — up from 44% the year before.
