Georgia GOAL - Bible Baptist Christian Academy

Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program

Redirect a portion of your Georgia income tax payments to provide scholarships to BBCA students. For every dollar you give through this program, you can subtract a dollar from the amount of state taxes you owe. If you pay Georgia taxes, you can receive a 100% tax credit against your Georgia income tax liability.

Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program – Submit your 2024 GOAL Tax Credit Application today!

The GOAL Program remains an extraordinary opportunity granted to Georgians by our legislative representatives. However, it's never been in higher demand.

When you contribute to Georgia GOAL, our partnering Student Scholarship Organization, you're not only awarded a 100% state income tax credit, but also the satisfaction of knowing your dollars are making a real difference in our community.

By simply choosing to contribute to Georgia GOAL for a 100% Georgia income tax credit, you're helping to provide financial aid to deserving families seeking a BBCA education.

It is almost certain that GOAL tax credits will be oversubscribed in 2024, just as they were this year. Accordingly, you must submit your 2024 application before the end of 2023 in order to obtain a GOAL tax credit. In addition, keep in mind that you are unlikely to be approved for the full amount of your requested tax credit.
