AZ Foster Care Tax Credit


Arizonans for Children is a 501 (c) 3  charitable organization and therefore your donation is tax deductible if you itemize your Federal income tax return.
Under Arizona law (A.R.S. 43-1088.G.2--tax credit for donations to a Qualifying Foster Care Charitable Organization) Arizonans for Children, Inc. is a Qualifying Foster Care Charitable organization and cash donations  are entitled to a tax credit of $500 for single individuals and $1,000 for married couples filing jointly on the Arizona tax return. This credit can reduce taxes for these tax filers more than a regular deduction for contributions to charitable nonprofits, because they may get a dollar-for-dollar reduction in taxes owed. A tax credit is significantly more beneficial than a tax deduction.  A tax credit reduces your taxes, dollar-for-dollar. A tax deduction reduces the taxable income upon which your tax liability is calculated.
You do not need to itemize deductions to claim this Arizona tax credit.
100% of your donation goes to the children's programs, 
NONE will go for administration or fundraising.

Have questions about Tax Credits?

There are several different tax credits that can be claimed.  It is not either/or,  contributions can be made to approved charities helping the working poor, foster care, public schools and private schools.
You do not have to make a contribution to Arizonans for Children at one time, you can make it in payments!
