Through this program, eligible donors who make a contribution to OATS can receive 50 percent of their gift back in the form of a tax credit.Donations made using the NAP tax credits will go toward the purchase of new buses in the community of the donor’s choice. Through the generosity of donors and the NAP tax credit program, OATS can maximize its fundraising efforts in the community. Those eligible for the tax credits include businesses, individuals who operate a sole proprietorship, operate a farm, have rental property or royalty income, as well as a shareholder in an S-corporation, a partner in a Partnership or a member of a Limited Liability Corporation.OATS is a statewide transportation provider serving the rural general public, senior citizens and people with disabilities in 87 Missouri counties.
