Are you interested in supporting children in foster care while also reducing your state tax bill? The Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit offers a unique opportunity for Arizona residents to make a meaningful difference in the community through giving to organizations like RISE Services, Inc. Arizona. Below, we’ll break down how the Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit works, why it’s beneficial, and how you can easily begin fostering positive change through your charitable contributions.
What is the Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit?
The Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit empowers residents to direct their state tax dollars to qualifying foster care organizations, like RISE Services, Inc. Arizona. When you donate, your tax liability decreases dollar-for-dollar up to the allowable amount. This means your gift can help children and individuals with IDD access support, without adding to your financial burden.
For tax year 2025, you can contribute:
- $618 for single, married filing separately, or head of household filers
- $1,234 for married filing jointly
For tax year 2026, the maximum contributions increase to:
- $632 for single, married filing separately, or head of household filers
- $1,262 for married filing jointly
Partnering with us through your donation strengthens the network of support for foster children and individuals with IDD and provides opportunities essential for their growth.
