Use Your AZ Tax Credit Donation for the Bike Park

You have a choice where to send your tax dollars. You can send them to the state or to schools and, specifically, the bike park.

Arizona allows individual state income taxpayers to receive a tax credit of up to $200 and married couples filing jointly up to $400 for contributions made to public schools to support extracurricular activities such as FLYRS afterschool programs and the bike park at Puente de Hózhó.

A common misconception is that someone needs to owe taxes in order to benefit. A tax payer can donate up to the amount of their Arizona Tax Liability (within the $200 and $400 limit). This donation will show up in the form of a credit if taxes are owed or in the form of a tax return if taxes are overpaid

For a tax credit to be claimed for 2021, the donation must be postmarked or delivered by April 15, 2022.

To have your tax credit go towards the bike park then use the response card, select Puente, and make a note that its for the bike park on the card and on your check. If donating online, then select Puente – educational enrichment tax – memo and write FLYRS bike park in the memo field.
