EITC Program: PA Educational Improvement Tax Credit

REDIRECT YOUR PA STATE TAXES TO SUPPORT
STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS

Do you have a heart for Christian education? Would you like to help make it possible for more children to learn about Jesus while receiving an excellent education? The Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program allows you to use your PA state taxes to help make this a reality for more students while you receive up to 90% of this amount back as a tax credit!!

In the state of PA, individuals and businesses that pay state taxes may be eligible to participate in the EITC program, which allows you to receive up to a 90% tax credit on contributions to an EITC scholarship organization. The tax credits to eligible businesses can contribute to a Scholarship Organization, an Educational Improvement Organization, and/or a Pre-Kindergarten Scholarship Organization. In 2014, Pennsylvania’s EITC legislation was amended to allow certain individuals (rather than only businesses) to participate in the EITC tax credit program through what is called a Special Purpose Entity (SPE).
