American Goal Tax Credit
A New Opportunity to Support Private School Education!
Beginning January 1, 2027
Kentucky families will have a new opportunity to benefit from a federal scholarship program that helps eligible students pay for private school tuition and other qualifying educational expenses.
This program also allows individuals and married couples to receive a dollar-for-dollar federal income tax credit when they donate to an approved Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO). American Goal is our SGO.
Villa Madonna Academy and the Diocese of Covington are excited to partner with American Goal. It has experience administering programs in Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

Parents, grandparents, alumni, and community supporters can donate to Villa through American Goal. -
How much is the tax credit?
Individuals may donate up for $1,700. Married couples filing jointly may donate up to $3,400.Read More
A tax credit reduces the amount of federal income tax you owe. Unlike a tax deduction, a credit directly reduces your federal income tax liability. -
Who can qualify for a scholarship?
Students must meet federal eligibility requirements. A family's household income generally must not exceed 300% of the median gross income for the area where the student lives.Read More
For example, if the area's median household income is $90,000, the income threshold would be approximately $270,000 per year.
