What is a QCO?

A Qualified Charitable Organization (QCO) is an Arizona-approved nonprofit that allows you to redirect part of your Arizona state taxes to support a cause you care about — at no additional cost to you.

Instead of sending those dollars to the state, you can choose to send them to a local organization making a real impact in our community.

This is a dollar-for-dollar state tax credit — not a deduction.

How the Arizona QCO Tax Credit Works

Step 1 — Donate
If you owe AZ Taxes, make a donation to The Hope Foundation or any other QCO organization before Arizona Tax Day.

Step 2 — Get Your Tax Credit
When you file your Arizona state taxes, you’ll claim the donation using a QCO Code. (Ours is 22651)

Step 3 — Reduce Your Taxes
Your donation reduces what you owe to Arizona — or increases your refund — dollar for dollar.

2025 Donation Limits

Arizona sets annual limits on how much you can claim for the QCO tax credit:

  • $470 — Single Filers

  • $938 — Married Filing Jointly

You can donate any amount up to the limit to receive the full credit.

Important Note:
You may still donate more, but amounts above the limit will not qualify for the Arizona tax credit.

Who Should Consider a QCO Donation?

Individuals & Couples
If you owe Arizona state taxes or usually receive a refund, this is a simple way to create impact with money you’re already paying.
