As a certified Community Development Corporation, Wellspring receives Community Investment Tax Credits from the state of Massachusetts each year. Anyone giving a donation of $1,000 or more is eligible to receive half of that donation back in the form of a tax credit (if you owe state taxes) or cash if you don't owe state taxes. This applies to out-of-state folks as well. Tax credits are limited. Contact Development Coordinator Kristan Bakker for credit availability.

If you are fortunate enough to own non-cash assets (stocks, bonds, property), a great and easy way to support Wellspring is to donate stocks or bonds. These gifts don't incur the capital gains tax since you are transferring the asset, not selling it. NOTE: non-cash donations do not qualify for the Massachusetts CITC Program.
Let us know if you're interested. We work with Stakeholders Capital in Amherst, to handle donations of stocks and bonds to Wellspring Cooperative. They do this work pro bono, so we also want to acknowledge and deeply appreciate their generosity.
