Partners choose their level of support and are recognized throughout the year. The Partnership is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit led by a volunteer board, and all gifts are 100 percent tax-deductible.

Annual Fundraising Campaign

The Hardwick Downtown Partnership provides leadership to support the economic, social, cultural, and recreational vitality of downtown Hardwick. We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit led by a volunteer board, and we serve as the designated downtown organization for Hardwick (one of 24 designated downtowns in Vermont) working alongside the town, local businesses, and community members on the projects, events, and everyday work that keep our downtown vital. Our Annual Campaign sustains that work, and this year a generous donor has offered to match every Annual Campaign gift dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. Contributions are 100 percent tax-deductible.
