NAP Tax Credits Are Spoken For

Thank you for helping us to participate in the NAP Tax Credit Program. This year, due to an increase in the number of applicants and a focus on emergency housing, we have experienced a drastic cut in our allocation. Girls Inc. was awarded $3,000 in tax credits, and all of them have been spoken for at this time. However, we still need your gift, and your gift is much appreciated.

Because we sold out of our original allocation by September 25, 2009, we are eligible for re-allocation of credits. If we are awarded a re-allocation, we will post the information on our website.

Please consider making a donation to Girls Inc. Funds underwrite the costs of our after-school program, and help us build capacity by serving more girls.

If you have any questions about NAP, please call Lee Ann Jourdan at 812-336-7313 or email her at ljourdan<at>monroe.girls-inc.org.

Thank you for your strong support of girls in our community!
