Arizona Tax Credit for Donations to Public Schools

The Arizona Tax Credit for Donations to Public Schools allows taxpayers to contribute directly to local schools or school activities and receive a dollar-for-dollar reduction on their state taxes, up to specified limits. This means you can support extracurricular programs, character education, or scholarship funds while reducing your tax bill. The system encourages community involvement and helps enhance educational opportunities without increasing overall taxes. Donations must be made to approved programs or organizations, and the benefit is available for individual taxpayers, including those filing jointly or as a head of household.
