A 401(K) Opportunity for Small Nonprofit Members
With a deep commitment to the nonprofit sector in the state, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts created a retirement plan specifically for small nonprofits with 20 or fewer employees (at the time of adoption). Our mission at the Chamber is to do everything we can to help members succeed by providing valuable services and programming. To that end, we’re excited to partner with the CORE Plan to introduce this retirement planning solution to our small nonprofit members of Massachusetts.
