PA Educational Improvement Tax Credit PROGRAM (EITc)
Pennsylvania's EITC Program
Do you pay Pennsylvania taxes? If so, you can help PA students with critical scholarships by redirecting your state tax liability to the EITC program. You will receive a 90% tax credit for your contribution!
The EITC program enables BUSINESS and INDIVIDUAL taxpayers to redirect their Pennsylvania taxes to scholarships supporting students at non-public schools across the Commonwealth. Contributions can be directed to any of our partner schools, which include Jewish and other faith-based schools, secular private schools, and those that serve children with learning differences and vulnerable populations.

Participation by Individuals
Individuals with a Pennsylvania tax liability can join one of our Special Purpose Entities (SPE) at Pennsylvania Education Partnership LLC. An SPE is the required method through which Pennsylvania enables participation in these tax credit programs. And, you can designate from PEP's participating schools.

Participation by Businesses
A business can join PEP and contribute its PA taxes for scholarships.
OR
Pennsylvania businesses can apply directly to the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED).
For businesses wishing to participate directly with the Commonwealth by applying for their own tax credits, PEP partners with the Foundation for Jewish Day Schools (FJDS).
