Redirect Your Ohio Tax Dollars to Support Catholic Education.
Make a Difference for Students and Families Across the Diocese of Youngstown!
You have a unique opportunity to make Catholic education more accessible for St Peter School families—without spending an extra dollar.
When you donate to the Good Samaritan Scholarship Fund, your contribution provides scholarships for students attending Catholic schools throughout the Diocese of Youngstown. In return, you’ll receive a dollar-for-dollar Ohio income tax credit—up to $750 per person or $1,500 if married filing jointly—when you file your state taxes.
Your donation:
- Supports local Catholic schools and helps more children experience a faith-based education.
- Directs your tax dollars to where they make the most difference.
- Strengthens our community by investing in the future of Catholic education.
Donations made by April 15 can be counted toward the previous year’s taxes—so now is the perfect time to give.
