Indiana has one of the most aggressive, yet little known tax-savings programs for donors that support scholarships for qualifying students. Donors receive a state tax credit valued at 50% of their gift amount.
When you give to a Tax Credit Scholarship through our SGO, you can double or nearly triple (if you itemize deductions on your federal tax return) the gift you originally planned – for a similar out-of-pocket cost.
Tax Savings Examples
The table below illustrates the potential tax savings by making a gift to a scholarship-granting organization.
| Your Gift | Your True Cost |
| $1,000 | $325 |
| $5,000 | $1,645 |
| $10,000 | $3,250 |
