HOW TO DONATE:

Before making a gift, please consult with your tax advisor to determine your eligibility for the SGO Ohio tax credit.

Falcon SGO will send Donor Confirmation Letters via email in early January.  

WHY DONATE TO AN SGO?

Ohio taxpayers who donate to SGOs may be able to claim a dollar-for-dollar tax credit (non-refundable*) on their Ohio state income tax return for up to $750 per donor (up to $1,500, if married and filing jointly).  See section 5747.73 of the Ohio Revised Code.

* The portion of an SGO donation that exceeds the tax liability is not refundable.

PLEASE NOTE:  if two people in one household wish to claim the tax credit, each individual should make a separate donation; two separate transactions.  Separate acknowledgement letters will be provided to document each individual gift.

TAX CREDIT vs. DEDUCTION

It is important to understand the difference between a tax credit and a tax deduction, and it is important to determine your eligibility for tax credits and deductions before you file.

• Credits can reduce the amount of tax you owe or increase your tax refund.

• Deductions can reduce the amount of your income before you calculate the tax you owe.
