65% Tax Credit Too Good to be True? 

Not at all. If you file an Iowa Income Tax Return, your contributions to the Our Faith School Tuition Organization (STO) receive a 65% tax credit. That means for every $1000 you donate, you receive an Iowa income tax credit, not a deduction, of $650, which would lower your Iowa tax bill by $650. In addition, your gift may qualify for federal deductibility. And that gift you made? It’s going to provide $1000 in need-based assistance to families in the Archdiocese of Dubuque. And your out of pocket cost for that gift? No more than $350 and will be less if you itemize and are able to take the federal charitable gift deduction! It really is that simple. Visit www.ourfaithsto.org or call the Archdiocese of Dubuque at 800-876-3546 ext. 219 to learn more

Check out the St. Matthew YouTube channel, they have been putting out some amazing videos that allow you to stay connected to the parish and our faith, while also providing an opportunity to virtually attend weekend mass.
