Yampa Valley Autism is Now an Enterprise Zone
This designation may offer a substantial tax benefit which would allow you to give more and make a bigger impact in the lives of Routt County children.
Donations made to a qualifying Enterprise Zone are eligible for a generous tax credit of up to 25% to use against your Colorado state income tax if giving an outright gift of cash, or 12.5% for gifts of appreciated assets, such as stocks and securities. This is over and above the normal tax benefits of a charitable contribution.
