 YOP Tax Credit Information

Missouri Tax Credits enable you to give twice as much with less out-of-pocket cost!

For a donation of $1,000 or more, you can receive a 50% Missouri State Tax credit against any Missouri taxes you owe.  Combined with normal federal and state charitable deductions*, you could receive up to 75% back on your donation.

Without tax credits, a donation of $5,000 can send five children to camp for a life changing experience.  But, for no additional cost to you, double that gift to $10,000, take advantage of the tax credit, and transform the lives of ten disadvantaged children in the St. Louis Region.

How do you receive this benefit?

The process is easy.  Make a contribution to SFC valued at $1,000 or more (donate on-line now).  Gifts can be in cash, credit card, or through the transfer of stocks.  SFC will provide you with a simple application, which you complete and return to us with a copy of the canceled check, credit card statement, or transfer letter.  We then submit the application to the state for you.  The state will send you a tax credit certificate which you submit with your next income tax return.

You can make a difference!

 

Your contributions make a direct impact, filling the gap between what a family can afford and what it actually costs for their child to attend camp.
