Your Donation to Savio May Qualify for Colorado's Enterprise Zone Tax Credit

What is the Enterprise Zone Contribution Tax Credit Program?

Colorado taxpayers may earn a 25% state income tax credit by making a monetary donation to non-profit organizations assisting with targeted Enterprise Zone communities' needs.

You can designate a donation of $250 or more to Savio’s Enterprise Zone Qualified Project.  By doing so, you will be supporting Savio’s efforts to keep children and families together and be eligible for considerable tax benefits.

Enterprise Zone Gifts of stocks and securities qualify for a 12.5% state income tax credit. Please call Savio’s development office at (303) 526-8310 for information on how to transfer stocks and securities.
