A state tax credit is available for contributions to support extracurricular activities in public schools. Student activities like orchestras and field trips can benefit. Tax credits are a great way to support our kids in the Performing Arts!
As an Arizona taxpayer, you have the unique opportunity to redirect a portion of your state tax dollars to support public education. The credit generally allows you to contribute $200 per individual tax return or $400 per joint tax return to any school’s extracurricular program. It’s easy to make your tax contribution online!
More information about the tax credit and an online donation portal is located here: Gilbert Public Schools Tax Credit Page.
Steps to donate as a parent:
Community donations, i.e. anyone who isn’t a parent or cannot access your Infinite Campus portal, have a different process that is easily done through GilbertSchools.net.
Additionally, anyone may print and send this form into the Campo Bookstore with a check or cash. Please note ORCHESTRA on this form along with the child’s name. Download the Arizona Tax Credit Form Here
All purchases must be pre-approved by the board for reimbursement consideration. If you purchased something at the request of the boosters, please fill out this form and submit it along with all relevant receipts. You will be issued a check at the next meeting. If you need payment sooner, please email the board at board@campoverdeorchestras.org.
Federal law requires us to provide you with a receipt if you donate $250 or more of cash or goods. You may print and fill in the document below if you need it. Payments made to cover the costs of trips or other items that benefit your child individually do not generally qualify as donations. If you have questions about your donation, please email the board at board@campoverdeorchestras.org.
If your child’s group is traveling this year, you can find the details here.
