Last Minute Tax Tip: Another Missouri Tax Credit

Save kids lives, donate to the St. Louis Crisis Nursery

St. Louis Crisis Nursery still has tax credits available for 2010. For a gift of $1,000 you can receive a tax credit worth $500 against your Missouri state income tax return. $1,000 is the minimum amount you must donate in order to qualify for the tax credit. In addition to claiming the Missouri tax credit, you will also be able to deduct your contribution against your federal income.

This program is limited in scope so you should call first to make sure that the tax credits are still available. Contact Betsy at (314) 292-5770. Even if you can’t qualify for the Missouri Tax Credit, you may still wish to make a donation. The whole focus of the St. Louis Crisis Nursery is saving babies’ lives and keeping kids safe. Who doesn’t think this is a good thing?

The Crisis Nursery qualifies for the tax credits under the Youth Opportunities Program and the Neighborhood Assistance Programs. It’s important to remember that many of these tax credit programs are in danger of being discontinued in the future so you may never get another opportunity to take advantage of them.
