EITC

​

The Mesivta of Greater Philadelphia is committed to ensuring finances are not a barrier to a Jewish education for our students. We provide scholarship assistance to nearly 41% of our PA residents, much of which is funded through the Educational Improvement Tax Credit program (EITC).

​

Many of The Mesivta families are in need of financial assistance in any given year.  Even more so at this time, the pandemic and its aftermath have taken a financial toll on many and the need for scholarships has expanded significantly. To meet this need, we need your help.

​

Please consider participating in the EITC program and designating your contribution for The Mesivta. Besides the incalculable benefits of supporting our students, you will receive:

 

• A 90% tax credit for your contribution

• The possibility of a charitable deduction for the remaining 10%

 

Participants must have a minimum of $6,200 in PA tax liability and may give up to a maximum of such liability. 

​

How does the math work? If you contribute $10,000, The Mesivta receives $10,000. You will receive a tax credit for $9,000 and may also be able to claim the remaining $1,000 as a charitable contribution. This is an incredible way to leverage your donation!

Thank you for your continued support of our students!
