Milk Money Investing
A Vermont-based online platform that aggregates and publishes local investment opportunities and crowdfunding campaigns (pre-sales, donation & reward-based campaigns, cooperative offerings and related community finance mechanisms). The site operates informational resources, campaign pages, pledge processing workflows (in coordination with a local credit union), and investor outreach (newsletter and social sharing). It provides disclosures clarifying that it is not a broker-dealer or registered funding portal.
