Give to Healthy Neighborhoods Inc. and get half back at tax time with our 2025 Community Investment Tax Credits (CITCs).
CITCs provide a 50% Maryland state income tax credit on eligible gifts of $500 or more. This is a dollar-for-dollar reduction of taxes owed, on top of your usual deductions. Individuals, businesses, and financial institutions that owe Maryland state income tax can all participate.
Getting your credit is simple: make your gift by check, online at HNI’s donation portal, or approved in-kind contribution, and complete a brief Donor Form (we’ll provide it). We certify your donation to the Maryland Department of Housing & Community Development, which then sends your Tax Credit Certificate. At filing, attach the certificate and claim the credit (Form 502CR for individuals, Form 500CR for businesses/banks).
Questions? We are happy to help walk you through it. Please contact Justin Rose at jrose@healthyneighborhoods.org
