Support Local Causes and Save on Taxes: The North Dakota Charitable Income Tax Credit


At the Sheyenne Valley Community Foundation, we are passionate about empowering local communities and making a lasting impact through philanthropy. Discover the North Dakota Charitable Income Tax Credit for gifts to endowment funds, made possible through donations to the Sheyenne Valley Community Foundation.


How it Works:


Gifts made by an individual to a qualified endowment fund are eligible for the 40% tax credit if the total amount of donations for the year is $5,000 or more. This tax credit allows individuals to significantly reduce their state income tax liability based on a percentage of their eligible donations. By taking advantage of this tax credit, you can make a substantial impact on the causes you care about while enjoying significant tax benefits.
