Join us in defending justice for all. Your generous support helps increase access to civil legal services in New Mexico, which has the transformative power to change the trajectory of a person’s life. For over thirty years, Equal Access to Justice has been providing unrestricted, noncompetitive funds to civil legal organizations, such as New Mexico Legal Aid, New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, and DNA- People’s Legal Services. Through our work, you are helping our community to live with dignity and safeguard their livelihood. That is a remarkable impact to make. The extension of the CARES Act provides significant tax incentives for persons to donate to charitable organizations through 2021. Individuals taking the standard deduction on their tax return can claim an additional deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions directly to a charitable organization, and couples can claim up to $600. |
