The Johnson family has an Ohio state tax liability of $2,000 for the year. They decide to contribute $1,000 to our SGO that supports students attending CHCA, aiming to make use of the state’s tax credit to reduce their tax burden.
The Process
Contribution Made
The Johnson family donates $1,000 to the SGO on the OCEN website.
Tax Credit Applied
Ohio offers a dollar-for-dollar tax credit for contributions to certified SGOs—up to $750 per person or $1,500 for married couples filing jointly. For example, if the Johnsons contribute $1,000 to a SGO designated to CHCA, their Ohio tax liability drops from $2,000 to $1,000. Instead of sending the full $2,000 to the state, they pay $1,000 in taxes and redirect $1,000 to CHCA’s SGO.
Impact of SGO Funds
Your contribution ensures that more students can access the exceptional Christian education CHCA offers.
The Outcome
The Johnson family benefits from a reduced tax bill, effectively lowering their out-of-pocket expenses by the amount of their donation while also facilitating greater Christian educational opportunities for students through their financial support.
