Maximize your donation with NAP Credits

Can you donate to CCVI and save money on your taxes at the same time?

Yes, through the Missouri Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) tax credit program. Your donation costs you pennies on the dollar. As an eligible donor (see below), you can give CCVI the full benefit of your generous donation while vastly reducing your state and federal tax liability.

Who is eligible to receive NAP tax credits?

Any person, firm, or corporation with business income in the State of Missouri. This includes individuals who own and operate their own business, own and operate a farm in Missouri or receive income from royalties or rental property in Missouri. This also includes corporations, financial institutions, insurance companies, express companies, partnerships, and their partners, small business corporations (S corporations) and their shareholders, and limited liability companies and their members. If you are not eligible for NAP tax credits, you should still be eligible to take advantage of the federal and state income tax deductions for your donation.

What are NAP Tax Credits? How do they work?

NAP tax credits act as an incentive to enable you to give more generously to nonprofits, such as CCVI, that have been allocated credits by the State of Missouri. You have the security of knowing you will—at a minimum— get back 50 cents on the dollar when filing Missouri taxes. (See examples on the back of this sheet.) You claim your credits when you file your Missouri tax return. BONUS: When receiving NAP credits, you can still claim your full donation on your federal tax return. The NAP tax credit program also provides an opportunity for businesses, state government, and the nonprofit sector to build and sustain communities by establishing solid public-private partnerships.

What size of the contribution is required to receive NAP tax credits?

All donations to CCVI are appreciated and will be used to pursue our mission. The minimum donation to take advantage of NAP credits is $500. Credits are available until our supply is exhausted. Please call first to check.
