State Tax Credits

Did you know that donors who support Greater Albuquerque Habitat for Humanity can take advantage of a generous state tax credit?

State Tax Credits for donors who support affordable housing

The State Tax Credit Program provides tax credits to individuals and businesses making donations to affordable housing projects approved by the New Mexico Mortgage Finance Authority (MFA).  Greater Albuquerque Habitat for Humanity state tax credits are currently available for monetary donations focused on State approved projects.  We currently offer support for tax credits for the Clifton Avenue (San Jose neighborhood) project and pass them on for donations of $1000 or more.

The Tax Credit is equal to 50% of the value of the donation and can be used as a direct credit on New Mexico State personal and corporate income tax returns.

Donors are essential to our mission to build decent, affordable homes right here in the Albuquerque community. Habitat homes are the result of collaborative efforts by future homeowners, volunteers, corporate sponsors, individual donors, and private foundations.

“The tax credit was never a determinate of whether I would give to Greater Albuquerque Habitat, but rather an incentive that encourages me to increase my gift and make a bigger impact,” said Ron, a longtime volunteer and donor. “As a donor, it may only seem like I have helped one family, but really I have helped all the generations to come in ways we can’t realize. By helping a family purchase a home, we are changing the cycle of poverty for their children and future generations.”
