on your Arizona state taxes
ARIZONA TAX CREDIT PROGRAM
When you give to Lend A Hand, Arizona's Charitable Tax Credit law allows you to claim a tax credit that reduces dollar-for-dollar what you would pay in Arizona state income tax. Arizona has recognized Lend A Hand as a "Qualifying Charitable Organization."
Individuals filing as Single or Head of Household can claim a tax credit of up to $421, and Couples filing Jointly can claim a tax credit of up to $841.
The Arizona Charitable Tax Credit is separate from the Public School and Private School Tuition Tax Credits, so you can contribute to more than one, or all three if you choose. As a 401(c)(3) Organization, a donation to Lend A Hand also qualifies as a charitable deduction on your federal income taxes.
