OCEN Scholarship
Charis Classical Academy has partnered with Ohio Christian Education Network (OCEN SGO) to provide scholarships to Charis students. Through OCEN’s Scholarship Granting Organization (OCEN SGO), students attending a membering school can apply for scholarships to help cover their cost of tuition.
To provide these scholarships, OCEN SGO depends on donations. Any funds that you donate can be directed to your school of choice.
Donations are eligible for a tax credit on Ohio income tax:
Up to $750 for individuals
Up to $1,500 for couples
Donations are COST-FREE, as they offset Ohio income tax owed, up to the stated limits.
Any funds donated above the tax credit can then be used as a charitable donation and deducted from your federal taxes (for questions consult your tax professional).
You have until the tax filing deadline, April 15th, to make your donation and still have it count towards your 2024 tax filing!
