Support Ohio Students and Save on Your Taxes!
Do you owe Ohio state taxes? Consider making a difference with a donation to the Ohio Christian Education Network Scholarship Granting Organization (OCEN SGO)!
Why Donate?
When you donate online to OCEN SGO before the end of the tax year, you may qualify for a dollar-for-dollar state tax credit of up to $750 per taxpayer (or $1,500 for married couples filing jointly). Your donation could also reduce your federal tax liability—just check with one of our accountants to see how it applies to your situation.
How Does the Tax Credit Work?
- Your donation can be claimed when you file your Ohio taxes for the year the gift is made.
- The credit directly reduces your state tax liability—up to $750 per taxpayer.
- Married couples filing jointly can maximize their credit by making two separate $750 donations. A single $1,500 donation will only qualify for a single $750 credit.
- Before you donate, check with Fireside Tax 330-478-1505 to review your tax situation.
Where Does Your Gift Go?
Your donation funds scholarships for deserving students attending schools in the Ohio Christian Education Network. You can choose to support a specific school or contribute to the general scholarship fund, with priority given to students with financial need.
Make an Impact Today!
Give online before December 31st annually to claim your credit and make a meaningful difference in the lives of Ohio students. Visit OCEN SGO to learn more and make your donation!
