The Georgia Tax Credit for Private Schools program was created by the Georgia legislature in 2008. The program allows Georgia taxpayers who donate up to $2,500 (couples) or $1,000 (individuals) to private schools to receive a dollar-for-dollar state tax credit. Donors may designate a school to receive their donation. For more information on the program, visit the Department of Education Web site.

Donations are made to Student Scholarship Organizations (SSOs), which then distribute the funds to partner schools. Dominion has elected to work with Georgia SSO, Inc. The program yielded more than $45,000 for scholarships in 2009, enabling Dominion to assist families with tuition costs.

For more information Dominion's participation in this program, see the SSO FAQ.
