The Education Tax Credit Program

Signed into law in 2008, this law allows individuals and businesses to make scholarship contributions for deserving Georgia students.  In return for their generosity, donors receive a dollar-for-dollar state income tax credit.

Contributors may designate which school(s) receive the scholarship funds, but, by law, they cannot determine which particular student(s) receives a scholarship.

Apply Now.  Contribute Later.

It's a two-step process to contribute. 
1) We submit a tax credit request to the GA Dept of Revenue on your behalf.

2) Once approved (DOR has up to 30 days to approve), you'll then have up to 60 days to make the contribution.

So, it's an Apply Now, Contribute Later process.

ASF accepts contributions on behalf of any Georgia private school and will work closely with those institutions to provide scholarship assistance to deserving students.  For those amounts contributed to ASF that are not designated for use at a particular school(s), they will be used at the discretion of the ASF Board of Directors. 

No Cost to Contribute

Through the Education Tax Credit program, participants are pre-paying a portion of their state income taxes. 
In return, they receive a dollar-for-dollar state tax credit for the amount contributed; so there's no cost! 

It's simply redirecting where your hard earned tax dollars go and who gets to benefit from them. 

Would you rather support students at a Georgia private school of your choosing or have your money go to Atlanta to be spent in the state budget?
It's Your Money.
Your Choice.
