This fund is available for financially needy students. Anyone wishing to be a “tuition angel” can donate to this tax-deductible fund. This is an effective way to help us keep our commitment to providing a Catholic education to everyone who wants one.
The Diocese of Harrisburg, in response to the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Law (EITC), created the Neumann Scholarship Foundation. The EITC program provides tax credits to businesses that contribute to qualified scholarship organizations.
The Neumann Scholarship Foundation has been approved by the State of Pennsylvania as a qualified scholarship organization. All scholarships offered by the Foundation are provided in accordance with the laws governing this program.
Scholarships are offered to qualified students who are residents of Pennsylvania and attending Catholic schools in the Diocese of Harrisburg on a basis of need. In order to meet the state requirements, the scholarship organizations must demonstrate that families meet the state eligibility requirements.
Saint Patrick School usually is the recipient of other smaller scholarships from generous donors.
