Our board is currently looking for volunteer board members who are interested in making a difference with K-12 education.    As a  non-profit volunteer organization with flexible hours and a critical goal to help others, its always great to find others of like mind.  But sometimes […]

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 […]

January is Collection Month

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 […]
