Funds donated through this page will go toward supporting the Early Learning Center.
Receive 18% of your contribution to the EVJCC Tax Credit.
For example, if you give $987 to the EVJCC Tax Credit, you will receive 18% of your donation, up to $177.66, off your tuition for the last month of your 2025-26 school year, as well as an $987 credit against your AZ tax return for 2025.
To designate the funds toward the ELC, donate below or write “Tax Credit Code ELC” on the memo line of your check. For more information, contact Sharon Bayer.
You make a donation to the EVJCC, up to $495 individual or $987 couple.
You take a dollar-for-dollar TAX CREDIT on your AZ income tax return.
The EVJCC continues to help those in our community in need and you’ve helped make that happen!
Donations to the EVJCC stay here in our community. The donations collected go toward programs for all age groups, to enrich the lives of people right here in our neighborhoods.
Unlike other donations, this is not a deduction off your income. If you donate $987, you get $987 directly off your AZ State Income Tax Bill!
Through our JBox program, including the JBox Food Pantry, the EVJCC provides meals and food to seniors and families in need.
A tax credit reduces the amount you owe in AZ State income taxes. So, for instance, if you owe $5,000 in state income taxes, and you give $800 to the EVJCC as a tax credit, you would only owe $4,200.
A tax deduction comes off your total income. So if your total income was $60,000 for the year and you donated $800 then it would reduce your income to $59,200 and that is what your tax would be based on. So your tax bill would not be reduced that much.
The EVJCC has established a separate organization (EVJCC QCO) recognized by the State of AZ as a Qualifying Charitable Organization. For more information please visit: AZ Dept. of Revenue – Info on Qualifying Charitable Organizations. Donors should use the the EVJCC QCO code 20885 when taking the tax credit on their income tax returns. To make sure you are eligible for the tax credit please check with your tax adviser.
