This Giving Tuesday give the gift that stays.
Giving Tuesday is December 1, 2026
Children in foster and kinship care deserve a safe, warm and joyful holiday. Your gift helps the families caring for them across Colorado.
Join The 365 today, our monthly donor giving program.
When a child arrives in a new home with little more than the clothes they’re wearing, Be The Source gives their caregivers fast support, so kids can stay in stable homes and heal.
Contributions of $100 or more within a calendar year to Be the Source may qualify for the Colorado Child Care Contribution Tax Credit (CCTC), which offers a 50% tax credit against your Colorado state taxes. If you file taxes in Colorado, this credit can significantly lower the effective cost of your donation.
Please note that the figures are based on a 28% federal tax rate and assume an itemized federal tax return. The example provided is for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect your individual circumstances. We recommend consulting your accountant or tax professional to understand how this applies to your specific tax situation.
