Tax Credit Opportunity in Lake Havasu City

If you are looking for a tax credit, Lake Havasu City may just be the place for you to invest your dollars while receiving a tax credit from the state of Arizona.  Arizona residents have been given a great opportunity to help their community and to receive a tax credit.

Instead of raising taxes to help support extra-curricular school activites, the great state of Arizona is giving its residents a tax credit.  Arizona's tax law (A.R.S. 43-1089.01) allows residents to deduct up to $400 when supporting school activities.

What an innovative idea!  Instead of raising taxes to help support our schools, Arizona gives its residents a tax break.  Remember, there is a big difference between a tax deduction and a tax credit.  A tax credit is always dollar-for-dollar, which is much more beneficial to you.  At tax time, if you file jointly and owe $400 in taxes, after your tax credit is applied, you will owe ZIP!

Your donation to the Lake Havasu Unified School District extracurricular activity programs and character educations programs today, becomes your tax credit tomorrow.

You can donate any amount you wish, large or small, and the State of Arizona will match you dollar-for-dollar at tax time in the form of a tax credit.

    * $200 maximum for those filing individually
    * $400 maximum for those filing jointly

Lake Havasu High School's athletic department is saying "thank you" to all who donate the maximum tax credit allowed with a family pass to all Lake Havasu High's 2009 - 2010 athletic events.  You can donate to the athletic department or towards a scholarship for an individual athlete (not your child). 

For all of you lucky enough to live in our great city, take advantage of this great tax credit because it benefits our students, community and you.  For those of you who do not live in our beautiful sunny state, maybe it is time to think about a move!
