[Ohiodig] Support Ohio History with Your Tax Return

[Carleton, Janet]

Just a reminder now that our 2021 delayed tax season is almost upon us! Small contributions add up and enable some important cultural heritage projects here in Ohio (some of which are digital).

Hello Janet,

Many of us this year have a question similar to General Grant's! Tax season starts February 12<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fohiohistory.us14.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D37ce5c8c24208a588c681edc5%26id%3D4fe603bcfd%26e%3Dbaef517f22&data=04%7C01%7Ccarleton%40ohio.edu%7Cf66792257aed4600047b08d8cd2469ca%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637484903577224964%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=xqff3295J7BMYvOlmQSvdOwiFPNB%2Fwhh1BsNwlKfYW0%3D&reserved=0> when the IRS begins accepting federal returns. State and local tax season starts, too, and it's also a time when you can show your support for Ohio history.

Please consider donating part of your state income tax refund to the Ohio History Fund, line 26a<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fohiohistory.us14.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D37ce5c8c24208a588c681edc5%26id%3D16bf35b0a1%26e%3Dbaef517f22&data=04%7C01%7Ccarleton%40ohio.edu%7Cf66792257aed4600047b08d8cd2469ca%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637484903577224964%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=YHiUXGe6Gbus0Tw9W0L5Md3fDfv6HUa3AbEpJck0LzU%3D&reserved=0> on your IT 1040 return. More than 12,000 tax filers helped last year and the average donation was around $10. Combined with other support, we have more than $130,000 to grant this year. We'll announce grant recipients next month.

There's an even greater need: the Ohio History Fund has received 437 grant applications totaling $5.3 million in requests and pledges of $13.6 million in local matching funds.

The Ohio History Fund is one of the few grant programs in the state solely for history and preservation projects. Your contribution to the "Ohio History Fund" tax check-off on your state tax return makes these in-demand grants possible.

Thank you!
