Get Involved … become a member of Hilltown CDC!

Since 1984, Hilltown CDC has relied on local participation, control and ownership of the economic development process to help improve the quality of life for Western Massachusetts Hilltown residents while preserving the rural character of our area. As a community-based organization we rely on people with a stake in our towns -- either as residents, business owners or employees -- to help determine, support and sustain our efforts.

Please help us to do our work by becoming a Hilltown CDC member. Members elect our volunteer Board of Directors, participate in our annual meeting each spring, help develop and refine our programs, volunteer on our committees and spread the word about the Hilltown CDC’s services.

Membership contributions allow Hilltown CDC to work on important projects and services which may not be eligible for public funds or for which private grants are not available.  These include working with regional agencies and local groups to help bring high-speed internet service to the hilltowns, acquiring and improving real estate for affordable housing, and providing vital community services such as the Hilltown Elder Network (HEN) program.  Your support also provides “seed” money to help explore and develop new solutions to community needs.

Membership is open to all persons 18 years or older who reside or work in our target area. Annual membership is $15 for individuals and $25 for businesses.  No one is denied membership due to inability to pay and we gratefully accept donations in any amount to support the HCDC's work.  All dues and donations are fully tax-deductible.  Hilltown CDC is a private, non-profit tax-exempt organization.  We do not give out our mailing lists or other information.

Print and complete our membership form and mail it in with your check (this way your entire donation goes to the Hilltown CDC).  Or you may contact us at (413) 296-4536 or staff@hilltowncdc.org to pay by credit card, or ask any questions.

Thank You for Supporting Hilltown CDC & Your Community!
