Your Tax Credit Supports Autism Families

This giving season, you can provide hope to families facing extraordinary challenges. In 2024, donations have helped AZA United provide over one million service hours to local children living with autism and other developmental disabilities and to their families.

Your donation helps make a difference in our community. We can expand our programs to more underserved families across the state thanks to YOUR generosity. You can even receive a refund on our state taxes thanks to the tax credit opportunity! Learn more about how your donations help here.

Take advantage of the Charitable Organization Tax Credit to support AZA United at no cost to you.



In 2024, the tax credit gives Arizona donors a dollar-for-dollar refund of up to $938 for couples and $470 for individuals.

Simply donate now and get it all back when you file your taxes! AZA United will send you everything you need to make it easy. It's the simplest way to support the charities you care about. Feel free to share this opportunity with others you know that would like to help.

Sensory Differences as a Sign of Autism in Children

In our latest blog, we explore how these sensory experiences shape behavior and tips for understanding your child’s unique needs.
