Home > Arts for Kids Project: Patron Support

We ask you to join us by financially supporting our Arts for Kids projects.  With your help we can continue bringing children these great opportunities and expanding our programs to reach more students. You have a unique opportunity, through your “Arizona Tax Credit” donation made by December 31, to help provide the much-needed resources to continue this important project benefiting our local school children.

Your "Arizona Tax Credit" donation won't cost you a thing!

Here's how: Arizona Revised Statue (A.R.S.) 43-1089 currently allows individual taxpayers to receive a tax credit of up to $400.00 (joint return) or $200.00 (filing single/head of household). This is a great way to give to a cause you care about because it’s also a dollar for dollar tax credit for you.
You can choose to give these tax dollars to the State of Arizona General Fund, if you wish. OR … you can ear-mark a portion of the taxes that you are already required to pay and designate those dollars to go to a student activity.

You give us a tax credit donation and then reduce your taxes by that same dollar amount.

The "Arizona Tax Credit" donation requires payment to a funding account set aside at a school for extra-curricular activities.  Extra-curricular activities are defined as public school sponsored activities requiring a fee or funds to operate the program, such as Art. Works., an after school program for third – eighth grade students produced by the Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts,  Desert Caballeros Western Museum, Wickenburg Children’s Cultural Organization and Wickenburg Unified School District.  

Your Tax Credit donation will be used to hire knowledgeable arts instructors and to purchase instructional materials and classroom supplies.

Participating in this tax credit program is easy and convenient!  Follow the link to the school district’s website to fill out the form and receive your credit today.

Select Hassayampa Elementary or Vulture Peak Middle School to champion the arts among K-5 or 6-8 grade students respectively.  In the “Other” field type “Arts for Kids”.

Keep the receipt you receive for your 2011 Arizona state tax return along with Arizona Form 322 to report your tax credit and to deduct the same amount from the taxes you owe.  You are able to carry the credit forward for up to five years. 

The deadline to send us your donation is December 31, 2011.

We hope you will decide to partner with us by putting a portion of your tax dollars to work right here in Wickenburg to bring enriching arts activities to our children.

Please feel free to contact us at 928-684-6624 if you have any questions about the program.
