TAX CHECK-OFF

It's tax season! The Maine Tax Check-off Program provides a very quick and easy way for Mainers to contribute to the Maine Children’s Trust through the State Income Tax Return.

Whether you prepare your taxes yourself, file electronically or receive assistance from an accountant, please consider donating all or a portion of your refund to the Children's Trust of Maine. Here's how it works:

 • Choose your charity- Maine Children's Trust.
 • Check the box as directed on the tax form.
 • Indicate your contribution amount.

It's that simple!

Where does your donation go? Your donation goes towards supporting Community Baby Showers across Maine!

By contributing, you help families navigate this vulnerable time and take those initial, precious steps with confidence. Your donation could provide essential items like diapers or a stroller, or simply offer the comforting knowledge that someone cares. Every contribution makes a difference, and your kindness helps create a compassionate and supportive community. Help us celebrate the newest members of our community and demonstrate that all Maine children can grow up in safe, stable, and nurturing families.

Donate today by simply "checking off" Maine Children's Trust on your State Income Tax form to supply essentials, spread joy, and create a lasting impact in the lives of families who need it the most. Because when we uplift families, we foster a stronger future-for all of us.
