Homeless Contribution Tax Credit

The Julia Greeley Home has been approved in 2025 for Colorado’s Homeless Contribution Tax Credit (HCTC.) This Homeless Contribution Tax Credit is available throughout the entire state for a broader range of homelessness response-related activities.

Tax benefits are: 25% of the donation (monetary or value of in-kind) as a state income tax credit for gifts of $100 or higher.

For an example, if you gave $100, you will receive a $25 tax credit.

Please note – this is a tax credit, not a tax deduction.

PLEASE NOTE: 

• The State of Colorado has passed legislation updating the requirements for HCTC gifts as of June 7th, 2024.
  • This bill indicates that only the last four digits of the taxpayer’s Social Security Number rather than the full nine digits are needed to qualify.
• The State limits the number of credits available to each participating organization each calendar year. Consult with your professional tax adviser to be sure the HCTC program will be of benefit to your specific tax situation. 

How to proceed from here:

1. You can enter your qualifying donation(s) in the HCTC submission portal here.
   • If your total donation amount exceeds $5000 for the tax year, you will be required to upload the tax receipt(s) we provide. Please let us know if you need our assistance.
     • If your total donation amount does not exceed $5000, you do not need to upload your tax receipt.
   • If you would like for us to enter the donations on your behalf, we can! We will just need to collect the last four numbers of your SSN from you to be able to do so.
2. You will hear from us in January of the following calendar year about how you can access the certificate.
