The Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) and Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit (OSTC) programs provide tax credits to eligible contributers.
Every dollar received is awarded to students attending Catholic elementary and secondary schools, special learning centers, and pre-school programs in the Diocese of Allentown.
Tax contributions to this program are used by the Foundation to provide tuition assistance in the form of scholarships to eligible students attending schools within the Diocese of Allentown.
Our school partners with BLOCS, the largest approved Scholarship Organization in the state to process contributions that are eligible for a 90% PA Income Tax Credit through the EITC/OSTC program. To find out how you can re-direct your PA taxes to our schools, please contact advancement@olphbeth.org or Amy Impellizzeri, BLOCS Development Manager at aimpellizzeri@blocs.org

Financial Assistance Program
We are grateful for those individuals and business which participate in our EITC initiative, so we have financial assistance available for those in need. No family should be deterred from joining OLPH due to cost.
Families who are eligible to receive these scholarships must meet the requirements and apply through the STS system.
Once application is complete, your family will be notified of eligibility and the amount of assistance which can be offered.
