You can take advantage of tax credit programs that enable you to give more, receive something in return and possibly multiply your gift in the process.
When you give a minimum gift of $500 by check or credit card to an eligible United Way agency or project, you will receive either a 25% or 50% tax credit from the state. (For complete details and a listing of eligible agencies, see the chart below.) |
| Two Tax Credit Options |
Denver Enterprise Zone
Supports the Adult Self Sufficiency Initiative |
|
You will be eligible for a 25% tax credit when you file your state income tax return. For a minimum gift of $500 you would receive a $125 tax credit from the state. This helps homeless and low-income families participate in job training and placement, and provides matched savings to working families to help them purchase a first home, pay for higher education or capitalize a business through Savings Plus Individual Development Accounts. (Donors may give gifts of stock to the DEZ, but the tax credit may vary.)
