The Impact of Your Income Tax Choice

Allocating a portion of your income tax to a social cause like Turma do Jiló is not a cause for concern, but rather a source of pride. Imagine that the amount you would already pay in taxes could help schools function better. This translates into: better-prepared teachers, truly engaged students, and supported families. A child who previously couldn't keep up in class begins to feel included, and a teacher who didn't know how to include gains new tools.

These are just some of the benefits that inclusive education brings when it truly happens. Turma do Jiló has been working for over 10 years within public schools, engaging daily with teachers, students, and families, proving that this transformation is already a reality.

Inclusive Education 360: A Complete Cycle of Care

The "Inclusive Education 360" project adopts a holistic approach, viewing the school as a whole. It not only focuses on teacher training but also supports families, guides school management, and engages students. It's a complete cycle of care and transformation that directly impacts public schools, supporting ongoing educator training, strengthening inclusive practices, and creating an environment where all students can learn. The allocated funds enable training, adapted materials, and continuous support in the public schools that need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions About Income Tax Allocation

It's common to have questions about how income tax allocation works. Below, we clarify the most frequent ones so you can contribute with confidence and peace of mind. Allocation is provided for by law and monitored by public authorities, through initiatives like Condeca SP.

Will I pay more tax if I make this allocation?

No. You don't pay anything extra. You simply choose where a portion of the tax already owed to the government will be directed, in this case, to a social project.

Can I allocate even if I have a tax refund due?

Yes. The allocated amount is deducted from your refund, and you receive the remainder as usual. The allocation is automatically adjusted in the final calculation of your tax return.

What if I have taxes to pay?

Allocation is possible for both those who have taxes to pay and those who have a refund. The amount is automatically adjusted in the final calculation, at no additional cost to the taxpayer.

Do I increase my audit risk?

Absolutely not. Allocation is a practice provided by law and is properly recorded in your tax return. When done correctly, it does not increase the risk of being audited.

How much can I allocate?

Individuals can allocate up to 6% of the tax due. Legal entities operating under the Real Profit regime can allocate up to 1%.

What is the difference between allocation and donation?

Allocation is a tax incentive: you don't donate an extra amount from your pocket. You simply choose where a portion of the tax that would already be paid anyway will be directed. A donation, on the other hand, is an additional amount that comes directly from your assets.

It's simple and safe! Allocating your Income Tax is a powerful tool to create real change and build more inclusive education for everyone. Join Turma do Jiló on this journey and help diversity connect and strengthen who we are.
