Missouri Tax Credits

Make a donation of $2,000 or before March 31, 2005, take advantage of available Missouri tax credits and your gift will be matched dollar for dollar by the Oberkotter Foundation. This results in a realized gift 7-1/2 times the size of your actual after-tax donation or $14,900. In another example, your initial gift of $50,000 - which only costs you $13,500 - results in a gift to the children of $100,000!

The Missouri House Development Corporation under the Affordable Housing Assistance Program (AHAP), will allocate to you, Missouri Tax Credits of $0.55 for each dollar of contribution. Using this credit reduces your net after-tax cost of the contribution to approximately $0.27 per dollar. To ensure your complete understanding of these tax advantages, please consult your financial advisor.

Your gift to St. Joseph Institute makes it possible for deaf children to listen, read and speak. Please be generous! For more information, please contact the controller at SJI.
