Scholarship Application Update!

by admin June 17, 2013

We would like to take this time to update all parents, students and school’s on our progress on the many scholarship applications we received this year. As many know, we turned off the on-line application process a couple days after the 6/1 deadline. This was to help us collect all necessary information in order to complete the application review process. We looked for incomplete information, and sent out emails to folks to get the completed information. Our on-line application process was turned back on-line starting 6/16. For those that did not get their application in, please do so as quickly […]

You Still Have Time – Till April 15th

by admin March 21, 2013

Do you know that you can still get 2012 tax credit for donations made up to April 15th? That’s right! One of the reasons that most people struggle with making donations is the amount of time that in-between the donation and receiving credit.  We are very lucky in Arizona. Our legislature recognized that and we now can make donations at the beginning of the year just before you file your taxes (and it still counts that donation for the previous year).  This changes the donation deadline to April 15th instead of December 31st, or prior to when you file your […]

by admin January 11, 2013

We all go through most of January with the sense that the holidays are over, the kids are back in school and our mailbox gets filled up with all of our important tax information. Hence I call it collection month. We go to the mailbox and pull out all of those important documents and put them in our favorite tax collection method. For me, it is a shoe box. After all of the documents are in, we either work on our taxes or we have someone that prepares them for us.  It is always an interesting event – taxes. We […]

Our spring scholarships have been awarded! Email notification to all scholarship recipients were sent out December 15! If you received the email, congratulations. If you did not receive an email notification, we truly wish that we could have done more. We continue to see more applications on every deadline that we have from the previous year.

The volunteer staff will continue to increase our efforts in gathering as many donations as possible. We would like nothing more than to increase our […]
