You Decide Where Your Tax Dollars Go
This holiday season you can change the lives of families living with autism by making a donation to AZA United, and the best part is that you can get it all back. When you donate to AZA United, you are choosing where your tax dollars go.
Support our holiday pledge drive with a Charitable Organization Tax Credit donation by visiting AZAunited.org/donate. It's good, easy and free!
GOOD
:
Your donation will help AZA provide direct services and programs to local kids and families living with autism! 84 cents of each dollar raised by AZA, go directly to programs and stay here in Arizona. Our goal is that no family is turned away because of inability to pay.
EASY
: Using this tax credit to give to AZA, you will receive a 100% refund. The Charitable Organization Tax Credit can be combined with other tax credits, such as the schools tax credits. You may claim them all.
FREE
: The tax credit amounts have increased! Arizona donors will receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit up to $400 for individuals and $800 for married couples. It's an amazing program; tell your friends!
On behalf of everyone at AZA United, THANK YOU for your support, and happy holidays!

And The Awards Go To...
We received many entries for our Annual Photo Contest that left us beaming with pride! Selecting the winners was not an easy task. All photos were remarkable and inspiring, and many of them are featured in our Thank You for Being a Friend video. We would like to congratulate our winners, Sergio & Natalia, Jacob, and Cristobal. For prizes, each winner is getting a personalized toy or gift based on his or her interests and hobbies.
According to his mother, Sergio is a "really sweet loving kid. He loves to give hugs and everybody is his friend." Sergio's sister, Natalia is "outgoing, social, talkative and smart like her brother."
As noted in his photograph, Jacob is a very happy boy who loves parties and meeting new people. He is a socialite at heart and enjoys gaining skills to mingle!
Cristobal is a radiant child with a great sense of humor. He enjoys being silly and spending time with his family. He participates in his local adaptive recreation program, and is a sports all-star!
At AZA United, we are honored to have the opportunity to work with so many astounding children and their families. Thank you to all who submitted photos and allowed us to celebrate your children's accomplishments!

In most cases, all you have to do is to submit a copy of your donation receipt to your company requesting that they match your donation.
