Single filers can claim up to $421 or up to $841 for joint filers. Your donation will provide a safe home and wrap-around services in the House of Refuge community for a family experiencing homelessness.

It’s easy – simply click here and donate up to $421 (single) or $841 (joint). We’ll send you a receipt via email. Keep that receipt for your records. When you file your taxes, complete AZ Tax Form 321. You’ll receive a tax credit for the amount you donated to House of Refuge.

Remember, the Credit for Donations made to Qualifying Charitable Organizations is separate from other Arizona tax credits such as the School Tax Credit and the Qualifying Foster Care Charitable Organization Tax Credit. You may be eligible to donate to all within the same tax year.

If you are 70 1/2 years old or older, the IRS requires you to start withdrawing from most types of tax-advantaged retirement accounts. You must also take Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) from retirement accounts you inherit. For most people, the deadline for taking an RMD is December 31. If you miss the deadline or take less than you’re supposed to, you could be subject to a tax penalty.

To avoid this penalty, you can donate your RMD to House of Refuge. Qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) won’t be added to your taxable income for the year, potentially saving you money in taxes.

Learn more about RMDs and charitable donations here.
