Desert Springs Christian Preschool & Kindergarten
Donations
Your donations play a crucial role in keeping our costs low and ensuring that tuition rates remain affordable, all while maintaining the high quality of our program.
There are two ways to contribute: make a tax credit donation and/or a direct donation below.
Arizona Tax Credit Donations
Arizona allows taxpayers to designate a portion of their tax dollars to private school tuition. Your donation can help families cover tuition costs as our kindergarteners and preschoolers with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) are eligible to apply for a scholarship funded by these tax dollars. Donors receive a dollar-for-dollar credit when they file their AZ taxes, making it a ZERO net cost donation*.
​
Deadline to donate: April 15, 2025 (for credit towards the 2024 tax year).
How to Donate:
1. Go to https://www.arizonatuitionconnection.com/
2. Make your donation designating Desert Springs Christian Preschool & Kindergarten as your school of choice.
3. Claim your donation as a dollar-for-dollar tax credit when you file your AZ taxes.
