 CCSTO - Take the Credit and Help a Student!                                    
 
          Arizona Revised Statute - A.R.S. §43-1603(C):
    • A school tuition organization cannot award, restrict or reserve scholarships solely on the basis of a donor's recommendation.
    • A taxpayer may not claim a tax credit if the taxpayer agrees to swap donations with another taxpayer to benefit either taxpayer’s own dependents. 

Key Points:
    • Tuition scholarships are subject to the discretion of CCSTO Selection Committee
    • The Arizona Statute prohibits any designation of your own dependent as a potential recipient
    • Donations will be used for tuition scholarships for K-12 students attending Christian schools in Arizona
    • Awards will be made without regard to the student’s race, color, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin
    • Donations accepted by mail and online! 
  • 100% of donated funds qualify for the Arizona state tax credit

  • Your donation is also eligible as a Federal Charitable Contribution
  •  93.5% of donations made to CCSTO are passed on in the form of tuition scholarships, and reserve 6.5% for operational costs. Once annual operating expenses
     have been met, we reserve any excess for CCSTO Scholarships which are also awarded to students of our School Partners.
