Workshop: Louisiana School Readiness Tax Credits

Workshop: Louisiana School Readiness Tax Credits
WHAT:          
In 2007, the Louisiana Legislature passed a unique package of tax credits known as the School Readiness Tax Credits (SRTC).  For Louisiana businesses, there is a refundable state tax credit for donations made to Louisiana Child Care Resource & Referral (CCR&R) agencies, such as Children's Coalition for Northeast Louisiana. 

For every dollar up to $5,000 contributed to Children's Coalition, your business will receive a dollar-for-dollar refundable credit on your Louisiana State taxes. 

WHY:  
1.       For every dollar up to $5,000 contributed to Children's Coalition, your business will receive a dollar-for-dollar refundable credit on your Louisiana State taxes. 

2.     You can turn your tax liability into an investment in programs and people who support early care and education for children. 
 
3.      You have the power to decide where your tax dollars go.

Investing in early childhood education is one of the best investments you can make for your business and Louisiana’s future!

Direct the State of Louisiana to spend your tax dollars on early childhood education. The Children’s Coalition CCR&R works to bring quality care and education to every child in Northeast Louisiana.

Facilitators:
Lindsey Murry, Development Director of Children's Coalition for NELA
​Maureen Gallagher, Director of Early Childhood and Operations of Children's Coalition for NELA
