Reach Foundation - EITC Educational Tax Credits

Educational Tax Credits

On May 7, 2001, by an overwhelming bi-partisan majority, Pennsylvania made history by becoming the first state to pass an education tax credit aimed at corporations.

The Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC), provides companies with a 75% tax credit for donations to a non-profit scholarship or educational improvement organization.  The tax credit increases to 90% if the company commits to making the same donations for two consecutive years.  A business paying taxes in Pennsylvania can receive up to $750,000 in tax credits annually and $200,000 for the Pre-K program.  More importantly, the EITC provides children and families with a choice in their education and a chance in life.
