Just 1% of Arizona taxpayers use the Foster Care Tax Credit
Foster kids have grit! They deserve to know people care about them.
Please remind your employees, clients, family, and friends to do a really wonderful thing. The deadline for financial donations to qualify as 2025 tax credits is April 15, 2026.
Both school and charity tax credits can all be claimed together in the same tax year!
It's a no-brainer and the best feel good deal in Arizona. Charity tax credits allow you to redirect a portion of your owed Arizona income taxes to fund local charities, like those supporting foster care children. By financially donating to a qualified charity, you choose how a portion of your taxes serve those in need in Arizona, and you receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit (subject to annual allowable limits).
