VAS is now recognized by the State of Arizona as a charitable organization providing more than 50% of its funding to help the working poor. This means donors who provide cash donations can get a tax credit (dollar for dollar up to $200 individual or $400 couple) off their Arizona taxes.  This credit is in addition to tax credits you get for donating to public or private schools.
