Scholarship Tax Credit program

Scholarship Tax Credit program

Scholarship Tax Credit program

Agudah worked tirelessly to get this program passed and is currently working on getting it extended.

Illinois taxpayers who are approved can receive a state income tax credit based on contributions made to Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs). Our Jewish schools all have approved Scholarship Granting Organizations, so generous donors provide millions of dollars which they then can count toward state tax credits.

Agudah partnered with schools & kollelim to develop a uniquely affordable and honorable fund to provide financial security for rebbeim, moros, and kollel members. Membership is just $14/month for an assurance of $150,000 per unmarried child if, G-d forbid, the policy should be needed.

Simply buy a box for $18, fill it up, and drop it off. We’ll take care of the rest. 
Not sure if something is shaimos? Check here first.

Scholarships available for families that qualify. 

Under the direction of Rabbi Shmuel Fuerst, the Midwest Bais Hora'ah is available to answer your shailos anytime. Call 773-539-4141to get in touch with a rav who can answer your shailah — and get a clear, definitive answer straight away.

2024 Update: Agudah is actively working to get this program funded and running again, so that our children can eat well, learn well and grow every day.

On the first and last Sunday each month, you can drop off your shaimos and know it’s being treated properly. Simply buy a box for $18, fill it up, and drop it off. We’ll take care of the rest.
