THE ARIZONA SCHOOL CHOICE TRUST (ASCT)

Thousands of Arizona parents are seeking a school that best meets the needs of their children.  The Arizona School Choice Trust (ASCT) gives you a chance to help them - and it won't cost you a dime. Arizona's tuition tax credit law allows taxpayers to make a donation to scholarship groups and receive a dollar for dollar tax credit against their state income tax for the contribution.

The state recently increased the maximum contribution for a married couple to $1,000 this year.  The maximum credit remains $500 for single taxpayers.  This means that if you are married and filing jointly, and if you contribute $1,000 to ASCT by December 31st, you will save $1,000 on your state income taxes. The state will reimburse you one hundred percent of your contribution if you contribute by year's end.  ASCT scholarships help low-income students attend over 130 Arizona private and independent schools.

With the generous support of Arizonans like you, we can provide an equal opportunity for thousands of Arizona children.  Please join in this remarkable effort.  Your contribution will help provide equality of educational opportunity and build a brighter future.

On behalf of the children ASCT helps, and the thousands more waiting to be helped, thank you in advance for your support.

You can donate on-line at www.asct.org
