Here’s how the tax credit works:

1. Total what you gave to the nonprofits on this list during 2024.
2. Give the same amount (up to $500 filing individually or $1,000 filing jointly) to the Cultural Trust online or by mail by December 31.
3. On your Oregon tax form, report your donation to the Oregon Cultural Trust. You’ll get 100% of it back!

If you itemize your deductions, you’ll benefit even more with federal and state deductions. Find out more on the Oregon Cultural Trust website.

The Cultural Advocacy Coalition of Oregon has a long history with the Oregon Cultural Trust. In fact, our coalition was formed in 1998 by people who lobbied for legislation that created the Oregon Cultural Trust. We are the only statewide advocacy organization lobbying on behalf of arts, culture, history, heritage, and humanities.
