Donate Now!

As a non-profit early education center, VICCC heavily depends on many funding sources. Whether through local government block grants, fundraising efforts, or donations – each penny counts. Our children receive scholarships to cover the funding gap between subsidy payments and parent co-pays. The average cost VICCC must cover is $8,000 a month; funds which come from donations just like yours.

One dollar, a hundred dollars, or a thousand dollars – it all helps.

Individual

Businesses

The Virginia Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP), administered by Virginia Department of Education (VDOE), allows individuals or businesses to receive state tax credits – equal to up to 65% of the qualified donation – for eligible contributions made to VICCC. This means that by directing your donation to VICCC, you are directly donating to a local non-proft and can receive the applicable 65% tax credit amount directly off of your Virginia State Taxes.

You may also claim your entire charitable donation on your federal taxes. Depending on your tax bracket, your donation may total ZERO out of pocket costs. Please contact your tax adviser with any questions regarding the tax credit offered by this program.

For individuals:
• $500 is the minimum donation eligible for tax credits in a taxable year.
• $125,000 is the maximum amount of donations eligible for tax credits in a taxable year.

For businesses:
• $616.00 is the minimum donation eligible for tax credits in a taxable year.
• There is no maximum donation limitation for businesses.

Scholarships

$200 (covers 1 child for 1 month)

If you’re able to give at a greater level, would you please consider providing a scholarship to one child, for one month? If you’re able to give even more, you may choose to sponsor a quarter year or full year for one child, or perhaps scholarships for multiple children one month!

Book Club

$250

VICCC goes above and beyond by utilizing a literacy curriculum in the classroom. Each month our classrooms work with a specific book – centering their learning activities around the featured book. At the end of each month, each child is given a copy of the book to take home and add to their home libraries This allows for consistent learning and recognition, behaviors which the children take home with them and encourage their parents to continue reading at home.

Although many, many books are read each day, our focus on these “Book of the Month” books are an important part of developing early literacy skills. VICCC offers a donation option called the “Book Club,” consisting of a $250 donation. We partner with Scholastic FACE to receive discounted book sets.

Your tax-exempt donation will allow for the purchase of the monthly book to go home with every child!

Sponsorships
