Missouri NAP tax credit

Neigborhood Assistance Program (NAP)

The Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) allows Missouri taxpayers to determine where their state tax dollars will be utilized by donating to charitable organizations. Moving Upward has been approved to offer $208,300 of NAP tax credits to our supporters.

Eligible donors receive a tax credit equaling 50% of your gift to Moving Upward. This credit combines with your federal and state charitable income tax deduction to lower the actual net cost of your gift to cents on the dollar.


Who Qualifies as a Donor?

  • Businesses

  • Individuals who operate a sole proprietorship, operate a farm, have rental property or have royalty income. 

  • Shareholders in an S-corporation, a partner in a Partnership or a member of a Limited Liability Corporation.

Below in an example of a NAP tax credit donation(s), with assumptions*

* NAP tax credits are NOT saleable, transferable or refundable. A gift of appreciated securities would provide additional tax benefits related to avoiding capital gains. The above assumptive calculations presume that state tax is NOT deductible when calculating federal tax because new tax laws limit the state tax deduction for most individuals. Also the above scenario assumes that the federal tax is NOT deductible for state tax. Finally the above calculations assume that an individual can, in fact, itemize deductions under the new tax laws. This is not intended to represent tax advice. Please consult your tax advisor to learn how tax credits will benefit you specifically.
