EITC PA State Tax Program:
The EITC program is a way to designate your Pennsylvania tax dollars directly to Penn Alexander. The money for this program is already set aside by the legislature up to a certain cap each year. It's first-come, first-served to claim the tax credit for your preferred school (there are separate allocations for private, public, and preschools). Parents can make a donation up to the amount they pay in PA income tax, and receive 90% of that donation refunded as a tax credit. PAS receives 90% of the donation after the SPE fees. The minimum gift is $5,000. For example, if your tax load is about $5,000 and you make a $500 donation, PAS will receive a $4,500 gift! Any individual (parents, grandparents, friends, neighbors) can participate through our partner, Friends of Education.
