Did you know? You can more than double your impact on Wyman’s programs for a minimal additional cost with tax credits!

The Missouri Department of Economic Development awarded Wyman Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) and Youth Opportunity Program (YOP) Tax Credits – which can give YOU a tax credit for your donation to Wyman. By making a qualifying donation of $1,000 or more, you not only save money on your taxes, but you are helping Wyman connect teens to their voices, their strengths, and their futures through proven programs and supports.

Your gift of $2,824 provides a full session of Wyman programming for 3 teens.

Your gift of $1,232 provides a year of leadership and success coaching for 1 teen.

When you utilize tax credits, the out-of-pocket cost of your donation of $2,824 is significantly LESS than making a smaller donation without YOP or NAP.

Note: YOP tax credits are limited and awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. The minimum qualifying gift is $1,000; however, due to high demand, donors should be prepared to increase their annual contribution to secure available credits.
