Financial Integrity & Stewardship

Transparency Seal

Your gift is stewarded with care, discipline, and transparency.

The Center for the Rights of Abused Children is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Your Gift Has Power — and Pays You Back

Most charitable donations provide a tax deduction. This one provides a dollar-for-dollar tax credit.

That means every dollar you give reduces your Arizona state tax bill by the exact same amount.

Through Arizona’s Qualifying Foster Care Organization (QFCO) tax credit, you can protect children who have suffered abuse and neglect — at no additional cost to you.

When you give to the Center, your contribution helps:

  • Provide free legal representation for children in foster care
  • Move children from unsafe placements into permanent families
  • Reunite siblings separated by the system
  • Enforce safety standards that prevent further abuse

Your tax credit doesn’t just reduce your taxes. It protects children.

2026 Arizona Tax Credit Limits

You may qualify for a credit
of up to:

  • $632 for individuals
  • $1,262 for married couples filing jointly
  • This credit can be “stacked” with other Arizona tax credits, including the Public School and Qualifying Charitable Organization (QCO) credits.

You can give — and get it all back.

Where Your Donation Goes

Your Arizona tax-credit gift directly protects children facing abuse and instability.

  • Safe placements with relatives or loving families
  • Faster exits from foster care limbo
  • Legal action that holds systems accountable

This is not charity that disappears into overhead.
 It is direct legal protection for vulnerable children in Arizona.
