Your dollar-for-dollar tax credit donation to ACSTO provides scholarships to students at
American Indian Christian Mission School.
Since 1969, the American Indian Christian Mission has helped provide for the spiritual needs of the Native American people. For over 50 years, faithful leaders have shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ, striving to create a safe learning environment where the fundamental principles of education, culture, and spiritual formation are accessible to all. This year, you can help us continue to provide Native American families with the rich heritage of a faith-based education through a tax credit donation.
At American Indian Christian Mission, we want to be able to provide Christian Education for every family who wants to send their children to our school...we partner with ACSTO to help make that happen.
As an Arizona taxpayer, your donation to ACSTO provides scholarships for students to attend Christian Schools while you receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit against your state tax liability!
A tax credit is very different than a charitable deduction—rather than reduce your taxable income, it directly reduces your state tax liability (a.k.a. the tax you pay). This means that at the end of the year, if you normally receive a refund, you’ll get a bigger refund. If you normally owe taxes, you’ll owe less. It is to your advantage to participate in this program!
For example, if your tax liability is $1,000 and you make a $750 donation to ACSTO, your liability will be reduced to $250.
In addition, you can donate all the way up until Tax Day or before you file your taxes (whichever of these comes first), and still claim the credit for the previous tax year.
The best part? ACSTO uses your tax credit donation to award tuition scholarships to Christian School students attending one of our Partner Schools. You can even identify a school or recommend a specific student to be considered for a scholarship.
Thank you for making Christian Education affordable for thousands of Arizona families!
