Colorado Tax Credit

Giving to RMHC-Denver Makes Good Financial Sense

Your gift may qualify for the Colorado Child Care Contribution Tax Credit

Giving to Ronald McDonald House Charities of Denver makes good financial sense especially if you file taxes in Colorado. The Colorado Child Care Contribution Credit can significantly increase the value of your gift.

Monetary contributions (totaling $250 or more for the year) to RMHC-Denver may qualify for the Colorado Child Care Contribution Credit, a 50% state tax credit.

The table to the right shows an example of how the Colorado Child Care Contribution Credit can benefit you:

This Colorado tax credit is available whether or not you itemize deductions. The greater your gift, the larger the credit you may receive.

Please consult your accountant or tax specialist regarding your unique tax situation.

Guidelines:

The maximum credit you may take in any one year is $100,000 or your actual Colorado income tax liability for the year, whichever is less.
Any unused credit may be carried forward for up to five additional tax years.
Only monetary donations are eligible. Stock or other securities and in-kind gifts, such as labor or equipment, are not eligible but may qualify for other tax benefits. Donations through a Donor Advised Fund do not qualify.
In the case of donations associated with events, only the deductible portion of your payment, reduced by the value of goods and services received, is eligible.
Both individuals and corporations can take advantage of the credit.

We will automatically send a notice, along with the necessary paperwork, to donors that qualify at the end of the year. *Note: Gifts made through donor advised funds do not qualify for the CCTC Contribution Credit.
