DSNWK
The opportunity to benefit from Community Services Program (CSP) Tax Credits from Developmental Services of Northwest Kansas (DSNWK) is now in its final weeks. DSNWK was awarded $162,000 in 50% tax credits through the Kansas Department of Commerce.
“We are pleased with the success and grateful to all who have participated in this fundraising effort, however we still have tax credits available,” said Jerry Michaud, president/CEO of DSNWK. “We are hoping that there are individuals and businesses in the community that have an interest and can help us get to the finish line.”
Businesses and individuals subject to Kansas income tax are eligible to receive a tax credit through this program. Donors giving at least $250 to DSNWK qualify for a 50% state tax credit. For example, a donor making a $1,000 gift receives a $500 tax credit when they file their state taxes, making the net cost to the donor only $500. “It’s like being able to steer some of your tax dollars directly to DSNWK through this program”.
DSNWK’s goal is to improve accessibility, safety, security, and capacity needs through upgrades to developmental centers and group homes, which serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) in the 18 northwest Kansas counties.
The CSP Tax Credits provide an opportunity for non-profit organizations and public healthcare entities to improve their ability to undertake major capital campaigns involving community service, non-governmental crime prevention, youth apprenticeship and technical training, and healthcare services.
