Our Purpose
Through directed state tax credits, our purpose is to provide tuition scholarships to underserved families and students who desire an education at one of the Catholic schools Arizona believes in.
Students Served
Arizona’s private education tax credit empowers individuals and corporations to choose what their tax dollars support and greatly impact Catholic schools. Rather than writing a check to the state of Arizona, you can be one of many to direct your tax credits to the General Fund (serving schools with highest need) or the school(s) of your choice.
