PA Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program for Businesses
Beyond the direct benefit of investing in future of our students and community, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania also offers a compelling method to both contribute to the ECEF while providing huge tax benefits.
Pennsylvania businesses may contribute to education foundations and receive tax credits through the PA EITC program equal to 75% of its contribution up to a maximum of $300,000 per taxable year. These can be increased to 90% of the contribution, if business agrees to provide same amount for two consecutive tax years.
The ECEF has been approved for the PA EITC program.
