Homeless Contribution Tax Credit (HCTC) Program
The Colorado Homeless Contribution Income Tax Credit (HCTC) provides a state income tax credit to Colorado taxpayers who contribute to eligible homelessness-related projects within Colorado. Created by Colorado House Bill 2022 - 1083 (HB22-1083), HCTC replaces the Enterprise Zone Tax Credit previously available for donations to approved homeless support organizations.
You can download this PDF with more information. This YouTube Video explains how to submit your contribution for the tax credit. Finally, here is the link where you can submit your contribution: https://dolagrants2022.my.site.com/dolahctc/s/hctc-contributions
If you have any questions, please email development@thedeloresproject.org
Donate appreciated stock, bonds, or mutual funds
A donation of stock is a powerful and easy way to support and further the work of The Delores Project and receive a significant tax break from the IRS. You will not pay capital gains tax on the securities you donate and you will receive an immediate tax deduction for the fair market value on the date of transfer. As always, we recommend that you consult your tax or financial professional for advice before making charitable donations.
STEP 1: Provide your broker with the following transfer information
Receiving Institution: Charles Schwab
DTC Number: 0164, Code 40
Account Name: The Delores Project (Tax ID EIN: 20-1122039)*
Account Number: 8097-1204
Contact your financial adviser and ask for paperwork to make an outgoing transfer to Charles Schwab.
*Charles Schwab is a financial intermediary whose name might appear on any transactions.
STEP 2: Please notify us
Note: Please let us know the name of the stock and/or the number of shares you are transferring so that we can credit you with the gift. The bank DOES NOT notify us of the donor, only the shares received.
When you make a gift to The Delores Project by transferring stocks into our account, we do not receive any information that identifies you as the donor. To ensure that you receive a proper tax acknowledgment of your gift, please let us know.
