The Educational Opportunities Act of 2006 created Iowa’s first school choice program. Donors to School Tuition Organizations (STOs) receive a 75% tax credit, and STOs in turn give out those funds as tuition grants to lower-income students to attend one of Iowa’s accredited, nonpublic schools. Individuals, S-Corporations, LLCs, Partnerships, C-Corporations, and certain estates are all eligible to donate to this program and receive this generous tax credit. Here is the list of the twelve School Tuition Organizations in Iowa who administer this program. Contact your STO of choice today to find out how to donate.
