INVESTOR REQUIREMENTS

To join SVP and support our mission for regional economic development growth, investors are required to make an annual investment. This self-selected contribution amount is determined by the impact on overall economic development growth each investor wants to support for the region.

  • SVP invoices on a fiscal-year billing cycle beginning at the start of our fiscal year (July 1 – June 30). If you initially invest in the middle of a fiscal year, your first annual investment will be a prorated amount to cover the remaining months in the current fiscal year. Your second-year investment will reflect your self-selected investment level.
  • SVP investments cover a fiscal-year billing period (July 1 – June 30).
  • Partnership investments may be deductible for Federal income tax purposes as an ordinary and necessary business expense (not as a charitable contribution). However, investors should consult their own tax advisors for specific tax information and advice.

If you would like to support economic prosperity and growth in our region by investing in the Shenandoah Valley Partnership, contact us today.
