Yes, you can receive a tax credit for your hunger-fighting donation!
Under Arizona law (A.R.S. § 43-1088(G)(2), AzFBN is recognized as a Qualifying Charitable Organization (QCO), QCO code 20527.
As such, you may be eligible to receive a FULL ARIZONA STATE TAX CREDIT, up to $495 (filing as a single unmarried head of household) or $987 (married filing joint return) for donating to AzFBN in 2025 or until the tax filing cutoff.
The maximum credit increased for 2026 tax filings: up to $506 (filing as a single unmarried head of household) or $1,009 (married filing joint return).
See www.azdor.gov for more details, or call 602-255-3381 or 1-800-843-7196 from area codes 520 or 928. Consult your tax preparer for specific advice regarding your donation.
You do NOT need to itemize to take advantage of this credit on your Arizona State Taxes!
Per Arizona Department of Revenue: Arizona law allows QCO donations made during 2025 or donations made from January 1, 2026 through April 15, 2026 to be claimed on the 2025 Arizona income tax return. If a taxpayer makes a QCO donation from January 1, 2026 through April 15, 2026 and wants to claim the higher 2026 maximum credit amount, the taxpayer will need to claim the credit on the 2026 Arizona return filed in 2027.
Another Option: If you are at least 70 1/2 years young, you may qualify to donate from your IRA without triggering tax consequences when you transfer funds directly. Again, consult your tax preparer or financial advisor for specific advice.
