Give to Our Scholarship Fund with State Tax Advantages
The State of Ohio has certified the Chesterton Academy of St. Benedict Scholarship Fund as a Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO).
Turn Your State Taxes Into Scholarships
The Ohio Department of Taxation provides a scholarship donation credit, which essentially allows taxpayers to direct their state taxes to scholarship-granting organizations.
When Ohio taxpayers donate to a scholarship granting organization (SGO), they can claim a dollar for dollar non-refundable tax credit up to $750 per donor and $1,500 for married couples filing jointly. To claim the full tax credit as a married couple filing jointly, you will need to write two $750 checks – one for each taxpayer.
