TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — As 2022 comes to a close now may be the time when many people start preparing for tax season. By donating your tax liability to a local non-profit you can receive a dollar-for-dollar credit toward your state tax liability.

One local non-profit, the Erik Hite Foundation, that works to support first responders and their families, says they are grateful to those who help with donations and would like to continue their work to help our community.

"87% of all the donations that we get go straight to the program," Nohemy Hite said. "So we only have a small percentage on fundraising and administrative expenses. So be sure that your money gets to work and directly benefiting the families."
