EITC Tax Credit Program

EITC is not just for businesses anymore! EITC started in 2001 with businesses redirecting their PA State Corporate taxes to help Catholic and private schools. Now you can help Bethlehem Catholic and share in the 90% tax credit benefits only businesses use to get. 

• Scroll to the end to see the names of the 68 EITC donors who helped us set a new EITC record by redirecting their PA State Income Taxes to Bethlehem Catholic.  

For more information on how to apply to become an EITC Donor, please contact:

In the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year, the amount of EITC funding Bethlehem Catholic received was 

$923,965 

The Commonwealth of PA offers a 10-to-1 match to businesses and individuals and now extends to individual taxpayers of all income levels. These donations to Becahi ranged anywhere from $1,000 to $150,000 last year. The best part of the EITC Program is that all EITC participants received 90% of their donations back after they were sent their tax refunds.  

Bethlehem Catholic could give over $2,000,000 in scholarships if everyone who qualified would participate. The $2,000,000 Bethlehem Catholic would save could be used to fund other improvements that every Golden Hawk student could enjoy.  

Contact Tom Vresics by emailing him at eitc@becahi.org to join the businesses and individuals at the end of this page who have support BECAHI in through the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program and the Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit Program: 

Join our EITC donors at our Thank You & Info. Night at Zest on Thursday, November 6, 2025.
