GAP Ministries has lovingly cared for thousands of foster children since 1999. In the past 10 years, we realized it was time to do more than simply help children. We needed to bring healing to their families if we wanted to positively impact our community.
By providing food and basic needs products to families who were in danger of a crisis brought on by poverty, we could help prevent children from entering the system in the first place. On the back end, when children were already in care, we needed to find ways to heal families so that these generational cycles could be broken forever. This includes working to heal women who had struggled with addiction, providing job training to men and women coming from difficult places so they could support their families, and working with the children’s biological families to provide parenting skills training.
If you believe in our mission to bring help to children, healing to families, and hope to our community, then please join us through your financial partnership!

Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit
If you are an Arizona taxpayer, you are eligible to receive a tax credit for your donation to qualifying Foster Care agencies. You actually just redirect a portion of your state tax dollars at no additional financial cost to yourself! The Arizona Foster Care Tax Credit allows your donations to GAP Ministries to be credited to you, the taxpayer, not as a deduction but as a tax credit!
Did You Know?
Reduces What You Owe
The Foster Care tax credit reduces what you owe in state taxes by $1000 (married couples) or $500 (single filers) and the Charitable Tax credit reduces what you owe by $800 (married couples) or $400 (single filers). You may give to both tax credits, as well as the Private School Tuition tax credit and Public School tax credit.
No Need to Itemize
For your Arizona State Income Taxes, you do not have to itemize deductions to claim a credit for contributions to GAP Ministries or Miracle Center.
Several Tax Credits Eligible
Taxpayers may utilize several tax credits each year: Foster Care, Private School, Charitable Organizations and Public School.
Review Your State Tax Liability
Look at last year’s state tax return to see what your state tax liability was. That is the amount that you may give as a tax credit at no cost to you! If your situation hasn’t changed, the amount should be similar. On Form 140 its line #46, 140EZ line#9, and 140A line #21.
