Giving to VLHS
Help Students Attend Valley... and Save Money at Tax Time
The Valley Lutheran Scholarship Organization provides scholarships to students attending Valley Lutheran High School and Martin Luther School. In addition to being deductible on your federal tax return, if you are an Arizona tax payer, you can earn a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your state tax return, up to $1000 for married taxpayers filing jointly, $500 for other taxpayers. Please note that donations to the VLSO can not be made through our online payments website. For more information, and a donation form, please click here.
Corporation Scholarship Tax Credit
Valley Lutheran High School is a qualified school to receive Corporate Tax Donations. This is only available to C-corporations and they must be pre-approved. This is quite different from an individual donation. For more information about Corporate Tax Donations, click here. If you are a corporation who is ready to make a donation, click here to learn more about the procedure. If you still have questions concerning a Corporation Scholarship Tax credit, please feel free to contact our Business Office at 602-230-1600 x111. |
Annual Fund
Are you looking for some way to share an annual gift with Valley Lutheran High School?
For years Valley Lutheran High School (VLHS) has provided quality, Christian education at an affordable price here in the Valley. As tuition and costs continue to rise there is an ongoing need for annual gifts (annual fund) to support the operations of the school so that we can continue the quality Christian education you are accustomed to receiving.
Your help is needed on an annual basis to help keep tuition costs as affordable as possible, so that we may reach all of the students God is bringing to our doors with a high quality educational program in a Christian setting. Please consider Valley Lutheran High School as you plan your future (annual) giving. For more information or to visit with someone regarding your annual giving wishes, contact Dr. Jay Krause, VLHS Executive Director at 602-230-1600, ext.110 or email at jkrause@vlhs.org.

Now we’re expanding this program to other electronic devices as well. We now accept the following:
CELL PHONES: We accept and receive payment for all cell phones we collect. Please note that while we gladly accept and recycle batteries, other accessories can not be recycled.
