Georgia Tax Credit Scholarship

Support Brookwood Christian and help provide student scholarships by simply contributing to the Georgia Tax Credit Scholarship Program for a 100% GEORGIA INCOME TAX CREDIT. You will make a positive impact on our school, in our community, and across our state!

In the Spring of 2018, Governor Nathan Deal signed House Bill 217 which raised the $58 million cap to $100 million, which has since been raised to $120 million, making it possible for more people to fully contribute to these scholarships. Thanks to your generosity, we saw a 61% increase in participation and a threefold increase in donations, since the cap was raised. This goes a long way to help our students!

In November 2020, the Georgia Public Policy Foundation determined that Georgia’s tax credit scholarship program saves state taxpayers millions of dollars. Imagine saving millions of taxpayer dollars, getting a dollar for dollar tax credit, AND helping our school all in one step!

Your participation will allow us to admit excellent, deserving student applicants and alleviate some of the financial hardships for their families. We ask that you help these students to reach their potential and achieve their dreams.


Since 2010 we have awarded 168 scholarships

from $253,692 in donations.


Tax Credit Limits Based on Filing Status

  • Single or head of household – up to $2,500
  • Married couple filing a joint return – up to $5,000
  • Married couple filing a separate return – up to $2,500
  • Pass Through Taxpayers – up to $25,000
  • C-Corps and S-Corps who elect to fund GA tax liability through the entity can allocate the cost of funding the approved tax credit as an expense against revenue, reducing taxable income on the Georgia return by 5.75%.

After Pledges are Fulfilled

We then receive the funds to apply scholarships for our eligible students. Our students attend private school out of need only. They are not being served in public school. It is not a luxury, and many families struggle with our tuition, though it is the lowest among the 5 other metro area schools that serve students with dyslexia. Most of those schools do not serve students with other language or auditory processing disorders, and only 1 serves high school students.

If you have a student enrolled at Brookwood, you may be eligible for the scholarship funds depending on eligibility criteria.
