Help Students at
Gilbert Christian Schools
Your dollar-for-dollar tax credit donation to ACSTO provides scholarships to students at
Gilbert Christian Schools.
At Gilbert Christian Schools (GCS) we combine the benefits of a small community with a comprehensive offering of academics, athletics, fine arts, clubs, and spiritual training. Our mission is to partner with parents to prepare the next generation to impact the world for Christ. On our two Pre K-8th grade campuses and our High School campus, students receive individual attention from caring, godly men and women who take pride in equipping their students both academically and spiritually.
You can help be a part of our community by making a tax credit donation to ACSTO. Because of your support, you are helping families who otherwise could not afford Christian education for their children at GCS. You truly have an opportunity to make a difference in our students' lives. Thank you for investing in our students!
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!
