Support the Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund Growing Minds Creating Futures Program through Ohio Tax Credits
Your participation in the Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund supports our scholarship program – and our future – in countless ways; and best of all, your thoughtful generosity gives families access to quality education and the option to choose the best school for their children.
Through the Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund, you can now contribute funds that will be used to provide scholarships for students to attend a private school or homeschooling expenses, and you will receive a 100% Ohio income tax credit of up to $750 against your 2023 state tax liability. In other words, the state of Ohio allows you to “spend” some of the state income taxes you must pay anyway to provide scholarships for students seeking an education of their choice. The Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund is a win-win for taxpayer donors, scholarship recipients, and NOSF.
Your Support:
Directly impacts a family’s ability to choose a private school of their choice and even homeschooling options
All gifts made to NOSF will be matched by the children’s Scholarship Fund in New York, our partner organization
Helps provide scholarship assistance for low-income K-8 students to fund the current school year’s scholarship’s
Allows your tax dollar to support educational options for families in Northwest Ohio
