Self - direct your taxes, into your community.

The Washington State Main Street B&O Tax Credit Incentive Program allows businesses to make a donation to the Renton Downtown Partnership and in return, earn a 75% state B&O tax credit on that amount. In addition, the donation is eligible for a federal tax deduction. A powerful way to support your downtown!

Julia Lopez-Garcia, RDP’s Executive Director, is here to help guide you through this process. Please contact her at director@rentondowntown.com
