“Through it all, the Ronald McDonald House helped keep our whole family balanced."
These are the heartfelt words of a mom, Liz Herrick, and they mean everything to us. Our House is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child. Providing spaces for families to stay together, grow stronger and all be part of the solution for the sick child is what we are all about.

What is Arizona's Charitable Tax Credit?
Formerly known as the “Working Poor” tax credit, the Charitable Tax Credit allows Arizona taxpayers to claim a dollar-for-dollar credit when they make donations to qualifying charities, and RMHC of Southern Arizona is a qualifying charity.
- For the 2023 tax year, the maximum amount of the credit is $841.00 for married taxpayers and $421.00 for single taxpayers or heads of household.
- For the 2024 tax year, the maximum amount of the credit is $938.00 for married taxpayers and $470.00 for single taxpayers or heads of household.
- Beginning in the 2023 tax year, the limits will increase each year with inflation, based on the Phoenix Metropolitan 12-month average consumer price index. The amounts will not be lowered, even if the CPI falls.
- You may be able to make credit-eligible contributions through payroll withholding. Check with your employer to see if your employer has agreed to withhold contributions for this credit from your pay.
What is the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit Coalition?
Give Local. Keep Local.
The Arizona Charitable Tax Credit Coalition, or GiveLocalKeepLocal.org , is a collaboration between 30+ local Southern Arizona nonprofits. Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern Arizona has worked together with our fellow charities to spread the word about the Qualified Charitable Organization (QCO) tax credit. This is a mutually beneficial partnership that has allowed taxpayers to better support their favorite causes.
I already donate to my child's school. Can I claim this Credit too?
YES!
There are five different qualified areas eligible for a tax credit, and you may be able to claim each of them in the same tax year, up to your tax liability from that year.
Qualified Charitable Organization
Qualified Foster Care Charitable Organization
Public Schools
School Tuition Organization
Arizona Military Relief Fund
Each have different requirements and limits. Married couples can actually reduce their State liability by up more than $5,000.00 if they were to contribute the maximum amount to each of these credits.
Please note you can use the credits for any particular tax year only up to your liability for that same tax year. However, many of these credits can be carried forward for up to five years if they are unused.
