An exciting bill from this year’s Kansas legislature makes any money donated to pregnancy care centers deductible at 70%. If you are in the 35% tax bracket and donate $10,000 to Grace Place, you reduce your tax bill by $8,250. Essentially your $10,000 only costs you $1,700.

In 2024. the State of Kansas passed House Bill 2465 which gives a tax credit benefit for those who donate to eligible charitable organizations, including pregnancy resource centers like Grace Place. You can make a generous donation and receive 70% of that donation amount in a tax credit. For example, Ann Smith donates $1000 to Grace Place. After Grace Place files the tax form for Ann, she will receive a $700 tax credit award letter from the state. This means that only $300 actually came out of Ann’s pocket and Grace Place received a donation of $1000. 

Tax credits are not deductions. Deductions reduce your total income before taxes owed are assessed, while tax credits directly reduce the amount of tax you owe. This means tax credits have a much greater impact on your Kansas taxes and can be a huge benefit to you.

Fill out the K-96 tax application and return it to Grace Place. The Executive Director will sign it and submit it to the state for you.  The State will process your application and you will receive your tax credit award letter in the mail within 60 days, to include with your tax filing.
