What is a Qualifying Charitable Organization (QCO)?

What's a Tax Credit Donation?
The Arizona Tax Credit allows you to contribute up to a maximum of $800 for those who are married-filling jointly and $400 for single heads of household and married couples filing separately. Qualifying donations can be made all year in the way that's easiest for you such as scheduled recurring donations, gifts toward certain programs of interest, or through a one-time gift. EEF is not a tax official and we advise you to check with your tax preparer to verify whether your contribution(s) qualifies as an Arizona Charitable Tax Credit to a Qualifying Charitable Organization (EEF AZ QCO #20070).
