How Arizona Scholarship Tax Credit Programs Work
Under Arizona’s scholarship tax credit structure, donors contribute to an approved SGO and claim a corresponding credit against their Arizona state income taxes, subject to program guidelines. SGOs are responsible for administering scholarships, overseeing eligibility, and ensuring funds are distributed in accordance with state requirements.
This process allows donors to redirect state tax liability toward education while supporting schools and families in their communities. Schools benefit from expanded scholarship access and more predictable funding, while families gain additional options for private education.
