MBK Adopts 2 Families for the Holidays

December 22, 2022

MBK held a toy drive to support the HCS HeadStart's Christmas Campaign. HCS is a multi-service agency that provides education services and support for low-income and at-risk families in Western Mass.


As part of their campaign, MBK ‘adopted’ two families (families of 3 and 4) and fulfilled their Christmas wish lists. Led by team leader, Olivia Calcasola, employees at MBK donated toys and raised over $400. Altogether, the team was able to provide multiple toys for each child and donate a $75 gift card for each family. 


Olivia and Chelsea delivered the donation and met with HeadStart’s CEO, Nicole who expressed her gratitude for the firm’s generosity. We want to thank everyone who participated and helped to make this holiday season a little brighter for families in need.

Tax returns are due but once a year. However, paying taxes — through withholding from taxpayer wages, estimated tax payments, or both — is a year-round activity. That’s why it’s a good idea for taxpayers to review their tax payments regularly throughout the year to ensure they’re as accurate as possible.

When making transfers of business interests or other assets to family members, there’s a three-year period where the IRS can challenge their values for gift tax purposes. During that time, the tax agency can claim the transfers originally treated as nongifts were actually gifts or partial gifts.
