Purchasing a Children's Trust Fund car tag helps Family Links.
Prevention of child abuse and neglect is everyone’s responsibility. When you buy a Children’s Trust Fund specialty license plate, approximately 92% of the purchase price goes directly to fund community-based prevention programs in Alabama (including those at Family Links). These tags are available at every County Probate office and are tax-deductible. They can be personalized with any combination of six letters or numerals at no additional charge. However you decide to personalize your tag, the message is clear.
With over 80% of Children’s Trust Fund dollars going directly into programming designed to protect our children from abuse and neglect, your tax refund can become an investment in the children of this state. This year consider donating all or part of your State of Alabama tax refund to the Child Abuse Trust Fund. This tax deductible donation can be done by simply attaching Schedule DC to your state return and indicating the “Child Abuse Trust Fund” (1d) as your preference.
And finally, the best way you can help support the efforts of Family Links is to just get the word out. Tell everyone you know about our services. The more people we can reach, the safer Calhoun County's youth will be!
