SGO – Scholarship Granting Organization
Support Our Students and Receive a Tax Credit
Are you an Ohio resident who pays state taxes? You have a unique opportunity to support the young women of Mount Notre Dame and receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit through our MND Scholarship Granting Organization (MND SGO). A donation to the MND SGO is not just a deduction—it’s a tax credit that directly reduces the amount you owe in Ohio state taxes.
Empower Her Future. Donate Today.
Making a donation to the MND SGO supports the empowerment of all young women attending MND while giving you a benefit as well.
- Individual State of Ohio Tax Payers – can give up to $750 as an individual and receive that same amount as a tax credit
- Couples who live in the State of Ohio and file jointly – can give up to $1,500 as a couple (need both persons full names on donation) and receive that same amount as a tax credit
It helps a young woman and her family to better afford tuition at MND, while benefiting you as a State of Ohio taxpayer and is truly a win-win! Your generosity helps ensure that deserving students have access to the life-changing, faith-based education that Mount Notre Dame provides.
How It Works
- Make a donation to Mount Notre Dame through the Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO) page.
- When you file your Ohio state taxes, claim your tax credit of up to $750 (for individuals) or $1,500 (for couples) using the paperwork sent to you through USPS by MND.
- Your gift will help provide scholarships and financial aid to students, ensuring that more young women can benefit from a faith based, academically rigorous education that empowers them to learn, live, lead, and serve.
Double Your Impact
With the Ohio state tax credit, giving becomes even more powerful. Your donation goes directly to supporting students in need, while you receive a direct financial benefit. Together, we can make an incredible difference in the lives of our students.
