RECEIVE COLORADO TAX CREDITS
FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION
To YVLT’s Ranchland Heritage Conservation Initiative
An Official Colorado Economic Development Commission
Enterprise Zone Contribution Project

♦ Contributions of $500 or more to YVLT’s Ranchland Heritage Conservation Initiative are eligible to participate in the Enterprise Zone project tax credit program. This includes contributions for conservation easement acquisitions and/or YVLT’s day-to-day overhead and operations to conduct Initiative transactions.
♦ In addition to your State and Federal deduction, cash donations earn a 25% tax credit against Colorado income tax.
♦ The credit can not exceed a $100,000 annual limit or the total amount of the taxpayer’s income for the tax year for which the credit is claimed.
♦ Any excess credit may be carried forward for a period of up to five years.
♦ The $100,000 credit limit can be generated each year whether or not there is any carryover from prior years.

♦ Contribution checks should be made out to Yampa Valley Land Trust, with a memo on the check to direct funds to: Ranchland Heritage Conservation Initiative.
♦ After the contribution has been received, YVLT will provide each Initiative contributor participating in the Enterprise Zone tax credit program with an authorization certificate to be filed with the Colorado Department of Revenue in order to claim the tax credit, along with acknowledgement of your contribution. An important note for year-end tax purposes: The State program requires that the certificate reflect the date your contribution is received by Yampa Valley Land Trust!
