Corporations are encouraged to contribute to GOAL and help improve education for Georgia’s kids! In 2008, 13 corporations contributed a total of $1,194,200 to Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program, Inc. In 2009, 45 corporations contributed a total of $3,496,460 to GOAL.
Corporations that contribute to the GOAL Scholarship Program are eligible for a credit against their Georgia income tax liability in an amount not to exceed the amount contributed, or 75 percent of the corporation’s income tax liability, whichever is less.
Corporations may designate that their contributions be used to provide scholarships to students who desire to attend one or more of our participating schools.
For any corporate donor that desires to make its participation in the Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program broadly known to its employees, customers, or the public, GOAL will create and maintain a scholarship fund in the name of the corporation. Although the Board of Directors of Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program, Inc. will make all final scholarship decisions, corporations who establish a scholarship fund at GOAL may appoint representatives to serve as scholarship committee advisors to the fund.
