All About Tax Credits
Offset club fees through Tax Credit Donations!
Payments made through a tax credit donation are credited dollar-for-dollar on your state income tax return.
What are Tax Credits?
Arizona state law allows taxpayers to contribute to extracurricular school activities and receive a
dollar-for-dollar tax credit. By donating, you directly support students’ participation in our valuable program
AND you receive a full credit for the amount when you file your 2025 Taxes.
​
Individuals can contribute up to $200
Couples filing jointly can donate up to $400
​​
Tax Credits reduce costs for students and can be donated by
ANY ARIZONA TAX PAYING RESIDENT
​
So ask your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers to support your student
and TSTDC with a 2025 Tax Credit Donation​

Beyond our official accolades, your support helps provide intense training in acting, debate, research and rhetoric, public speaking, as well as interpersonal communication and teamwork skills.
Our students gain valuable skills needed for high school, college, and the professional world.
TSTDC students have been valedictorians, Flinn scholars, and Ivy League graduates.
Alumni have gone on to work as professional actors, doctors,
lawyers, and for the U.S. government at home and abroad.
