New! Receive a 25% Tax Credit for Your Donation to the Adirondack Public Observatory Building Fund!
As of January 31, 2007 the Adirondack Public Observatory Building Fund is an approved community development project of the Franklin County Empire Zone. This means that the Adirondack Public Observatory (APO) can offer a tax credit on New York State personal or corporate income taxes worth 25% of your donation (monetary contributions only) to the observatory building fund if made on or after January 31, 2007. For example, if you contribute $1,000 to the fund, you could receive a tax credit worth $250 on your New York State taxes. Please note that each taxpayer has a lifetime limit of $100,000 in total Zone Capital Credits for community development projects.
In addition to the Zone Capital Credits, your donation may also be eligible for federal and State charitable deductions. Please consider whether the availability of these Zone Capital Credits will allow you to make a larger contribution to the observatory building fund and contact Tim Moeller at (518) 359-8471 to verify that your donation is eligible. If so, all you need to do is fill out Form Z7 and return it along with your contribution.
