The Endowment Donations Bill
Kansas bill offers tax credits for endowment donations
Establishing the endow Kansas tax credit act to provide tax credits for endowment gifts to certain endowment funds held by qualified community foundations.
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
If passed, the bill would let donors claim a state tax credit when they give money to certain community foundation endowments.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
The credit could lower state revenue, meaning taxpayers may pay more, while donors get a personal tax break, so everyday people should watch the debate.
