Learn More about Arizona Tax Credit at Tucson Unified
You can help Tucson students get the most out of school years by making contributions through Arizona's tax-credit programs. Contributing is easy, and the impact is immense. This year, while our students learn remotely and some prepare for the transition to hybrid learning, the value of extracurricular activities, like interscholastics and fine and performing arts, is more important than ever. Your tax credit contributions support these programs.
Your tax credit contribution gives kids an extra chance to stay in school, learn more and do better in their classes. Kids who play sports in school are more likely to stay in school and succeed academically. Kids who participate in fine arts--in programs in art and music--actually do better in basic academic subjects, including math! It's also true that kids can learn a lot on extracurricular field trips--even virtual ones!
Best of all, in Arizona, you get your tax credit contribution back, subject to the limits of your tax liability, when you participate now and then file your tax return. Please consult your tax professional for more information.
For school donations, you can specify where you want your money to go. Choose a school, a program, even an individual student's educational trip or sports fee. You pick the programs and schools that are important to you.
