Taste of Amherst

Community reinvestment has been the policy at Collective since we were founded in 1983. Our goal is to pitch in with the kind of contributions that help to enhance the quality of life in our community and build the local economy.
community reinvestment
We donate 10% of our pre-tax profits each year to student groups, community organizations and individuals to benefit our community and our world. Our contributions go to a wide diversity of causes—labor and human rights, the environment and living creatures, child development and educational programs, local arts, gender disparity and homelessness—to name a very few. We distribute these contributions in response to specific requests.
