Ascend Mentoring Needs Business Partners

Ascend Mentoring is in need of business partners for the 2015 Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Act.  The partnership consists of the following:

  • Ascend Mentoring is a community based non-profit that has been accepted in the program as an organization that can receive contributions from businesses that qualify for a tax credit to that business.
  • The Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Act (NAA) Tax Credit Program is designed to provide funding for municipal and tax exempt organizations by providing a corporation business tax credit for businesses who make cash contributions to these entities.
  • Ascend is now in its 3rd year of operations and looking to continue to serve youth and families.  With a small budget of $140k any business contribution would have a major impact on the continuation and growth of our organization.
  • These partnership would be publicized on a major scale through different media channels which will have a positive effect on the contributing organization’s public relations and reputation.
  • The NAA allows for contributions as small as $250 – $150k. 
  • Ascend Mentoring is looking for at least 5 partners that can contribute $10k or more that would go to help run programs for youth and families.  Business with higher tax obligations would benefit by giving higher contributions.
  • We are a small organization with major impact so you can be guaranteed that your money is being used to change lives and not just overhead and administrative costs.
  • For more info on what we do, please click here www.ascendmentoring.org.
  • The application to become a contributing organization is due October 1 and has been attached to this email.  The contribution can be made any time before December 31, 2015.
