(KNZA)--Governor Laura Kelly has announced that $4.1 million in Community Service Program (CSP) Tax Credits have been awarded to support the fundraising efforts of 26 nonprofit organizations across Kansas—including two local nonprofit organizations.
According to a release Monday from the Governor's Office, the Beck-Bookman Library in Holton and Centralia Pride Association were each awarded nearly $167,000 in tax credits.
The Beck-Bookman Library will utilize the tax credits for an expansion and renovation project. The project will increase the library's current footrprint and modernize the infrastructure of the building.
The Centralia Pride Association will use its tax credits for replacing city pool facilities. The Centralia Pool, which was built in 1959, has reached the end of its useful life. A two-phase plan has been developed to modernize the swimming pool and rehabilitate the city park with new amenities.
Established in 1994, the Community Service Program provides substantial tax incentives to donors. A 70% tax credit is available for contributions in rural communities with populations less than 15,000 and a 50% tax credit in larger communities. The credits are a direct deduction from the donor- state tax obligation.
Awardees were selected through a competitive, score-based process.
