Tax Credit for State Historic Sites

Would you like to decrease the amount of taxes you owe the state and help preserve Kansas history?

Kansas State Historical Society, Inc. is looking for Kansas taxpayers who wish to donate to a State Historic Site and receive a 50% tax credit in return.

Eligibility for tax credits must be approved in advance of the donation.

The law establishes a contribution range of $1,000 – $5,000 to receive the 50% tax credit. For example, a $5,000 gift would result in a $2,500 Kansas tax credit.

Gifts will be used to help restore, preserve, and operate the State Historic Sites.

This is a tax credit, not a tax deduction. Tax credits are subtracted from the final amount of tax you owe the state of Kansas.

Tax credit donations may also be eligible for federal tax deductions.
