PITTSFIELD, Mass. - Each year the Commonwealth of Massachusetts conducts a statewide charitable campaign, commonly called COMECC, for all employees. The campaign raises close to $2,000,000 annually across the state with more than $100,000 designated to Berkshire County charities.
To be eligible for designation of employee pledges, charitable organizations must apply for and be accepted for listing in the annual brochure distributed to all state workplaces in the fall. The applications for COMECC 2010 listing are now available on the Charity Resource Page at www.comecc.net . New applicants will need the Cover Letter and Application. Those who were listed last year need the Re-application only.
Applications and Re-applications must be returned to Action for Boston Community Development, the Boston based statewide manager for COMECC, by Friday May 1, 2009. Local charities with questions or requiring assistance may contact the Berkshire United Way serving as COMECC Region 5 Campaign Manager at blee@berkshireunitedway.org or (413) 442-6948, x113.
