Donations

Thank you for considering Benchmark School as a recipient of your financial donation. As a whole, Charter schools receive less state and federal funding than traditional public school districts.  When you donate to Benchmark School, you are helping to fill the gap and ensure that our campus, staff and classrooms all have the resources necessary to continue to deliver an A+ education.

 

There are 2 different ways to give to Benchmark School, either as a general donation or through the Arizona Public Schools Tax Credit Program.  Both give you, the donor, a tax benefit at the end of the year.  Here is a quick description of the two donation options:

 

GENERAL DONATIONS: Benchmark School is a 501c3 non-profit educational organization, and all general donations are fully tax deductible as allowed by law. Speak with your tax advisor to learn about the tax benefits of donating to your school. All general donations can be used as the school needs- either supplies for the classrooms, equipment for the playground or campus, or additional funding for the students.

TAX CREDITS: Tax credit donations given through the AZ Public Schools Tax Credit Program can be allocated to a specific student or classroom. The money given as a tax credit can be used towards field trips, extracurricular activities, or character development assemblies.  This donation shows up as a dollar-for-dollar credit on your end of the year Arizona State taxes. Individuals can donate up to $200, and married couples can donate up to $400.
