What is the AZ Charitable Organization Tax Credit?

The state of Arizona has a unique program that allows taxpayers to give a “tax credit” gift (up to $400 for an individual and $800 for a married couple*) to charities they’d like to support. This donation serves as dollar-for dollar credit applied to the taxpayers’ state tax liability. As an example:

  • State taxes owed: $850
  • Donation to an eligible charity: $800
  • State taxes now owed: $50

*For Foster Care Charitable Organizations, the amounts are $500 and $1,000. Donors may give to BOTH a Charitable Organization AND a Foster Care Charitable Organization in the same tax year.
