- Tax-credit scholarship organization
For families
Scholarships fund private school tuition for students from households at or below 185% of the free and reduced-price lunch guideline (most must switch from public school), or for students with disabilities or foster care history. Apply directly through the STO.
For donors
Corporations (and S corporation shareholders) donate through the corporate credits, which must be pre-approved: the STO submits the pre-approval application to the Arizona Department of Revenue. Individuals cannot give to this STO for an individual credit.
