SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL COMMUNITY

To address the massive need for local business assistance, the Grand Junction Area Chamber of Commerce has created a process for corporate and philanthropic partners to make donations to help expand the program.

Donors having made a certified contribution may claim 25% of a cash donation as an income tax credit, and half of that amount (12.5%) for an in-kind donation. The actual credit earned is figured based on all eligible contributions during the tax year, and capped at $100,000 per tax-payer with the balance carried forward up to 5 years.
