Ohio Tax Credit Scholarships (CEF – SGO)

We have exciting news to share with our Moeller Family and supporters. If you pay Ohio income tax, you have the opportunity to pay less and support Moeller at the same time. 

The state of Ohio has a tax program called Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGO), which provides a tax credit to Ohio taxpayers (individual donors and pass-through organization) who donate to an SGO. If taxpayers donate to an approved SGO, they can receive
a credit on their state income tax return for up to $750 per donor, or up to $1,500 if married and filing jointly. 

The Archdiocese of Cincinnati has created an approved SGO through the Catholic Education Foundation (CEF) for all schools in the archdiocese. The archdiocese has also created a website for the SGO that allows donors to select Moeller to receive the tax credit while receiving a dollar-for-dollar tax credit toward their state tax liability, essentially making SGO a cost-free way to give. All monies go toward tuition assistance to eligible Moeller students.
