What is a SGO ?
Understanding Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs)
A Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO) is a non-profit organization, specifically a 501(c)(3), that accepts contributions from donors and awards educational scholarships to qualifying students in Ohio. Those who donate to SGOs participating in the program can receive a tax credit. The SGO program was introduced in 2021 as part of Ohio House Bill 110.
​
​​Taxpayers can claim this credit when you file your state income tax return. The nonrefundable credit will reduce your state tax liability. The tax credit you can claim equals 100% of the amount you donate, up to $750 per taxpayer. Essentially, you can give a student up to a $750 scholarship at no cost.
