Can I offer a referral program for my customers in Missouri? What are the requirements?

Based on the provided context, it appears that Missouri offers a Neighborhood Assistance Program that allows businesses to invest in programs that fall within the scope of special priorities established with the approval of the governor. A tax credit of up to seventy percent will be allowed for investments in programs where activities fall within the scope of special priorities established with the approval of the governor ^[2.1].

To participate in the program, a neighborhood organization may submit a proposal for a neighborhood project. Any business entity authorized to do business in Missouri is eligible to submit a proposal. All proposals must address at least one of the following priorities in order to qualify for approval: (A) The project substantially contributes to self-help efforts by residents of the neighborhood to be served in addressing locally defined objectives; (B) The project will result in the provision of essential services to low and moderate-income persons which would not otherwise be provided in the affected neighborhood and for which there are no other resources available ^[2.2].

However, there is no specific information regarding referral programs in Missouri. Therefore, I cannot provide a specific answer to your query.
