About Checkoff Colorado
Checkoff Colorado is a groundbreaking, collaborative, statewide public awareness campaign designed to raise awareness about check-off giving. That's the program that allows taxpayers to make voluntary contributions to their favorite charitable organizations when they file their state income tax return. Based on the notion that "a rising tide lifts all boats," the goals of Checkoff Colorado are simple - to get more taxpayers to contribute and to increase the total number of donations each year. In 2003 the charitable organizations eligible for voluntary donations in Colorado decided to take the bold step of banding together because their voices would be louder if spoken in unison. Now, California and other states see Checkoff Colorado as a model.

Attention Tax Professionals
When you are filing Colorado individual income tax electronically for your clients this year, please note that if your client owes tax, your software will not allow Colorado checkoff donations to be made on returns with tax liabilities. Taxpayers who have a refund may donate a portion of the refund, but those who owe will not be able to make checkoff donations on their return. Donations may be made directly to the organizations listed on the 2009 Colorado 104 individual income tax return.
