Recreation Volunteers Get Tax Deduction

A new law called the Marchand Act No. 458 was recently adopted by the State of Louisiana. This new law could potentially provide a deduction on your state income tax return provided you volunteer at least 30 hours of service to a recreation department. The key is that the recreation department must be operated by the State of Louisiana, which obviously includes RPAR. So, get involved – volunteer!!!!!
