There are many opportunities for alumni to give back to MWCC:
Cash Gifts
Direct cash gifts are the most common form of giving and can be unrestricted
or designated for a specific project, program, or department.
Gifts of Securities
Outright gifts of appreciated securities (stocks, bonds, mutual fund shares)
are tax deductible at full fair-market value if the donor has owned the asset
for at least 12 months.
Real Estate
Gifts of residences, including vacation homes and farms, allow the donor to
take a tax deduction, avoid capital gains taxes, retain lifetime occupancy
for themselves and/or another person—and provide support for Mount
Wachusett Community College.
Personal Property
Gifts of personal property such as art, jewelry, antiques, rare books, gold
or silver offer the donor an immediate tax deduction; the amount depends
on whether or not the gift is related to MWCC's educational purpose.
Matching Gifts
Thousands of corporations, foundations, and other organizations will often
match their employees’ charitable contributions either dollar-for-dollar,
or at a ratio of 2-to-1, 3-to-1, or even 4-to-1.
