YOP Tax Credits available:

Growth related projects at The Arc, such as the new addition at the Jim D. Morris Campus, are funded in part by the purchase of YOP 50 percent tax credits. While many of these credits have been purchased, opportunities will remain available through Dec. 31, 2010. The sale of the remaining funds will help with projects such as the kitchen remodel seen on page one, and the completion of the second floor of the new addition.

Tax credits, normally in $1000 increments, allow the donor to take the normal charitable deduction on the federal return, which then flows through to the state, allowing the normal deduction, plus granting 50 percent of the original gift as a tax credit.
