Transform MO State income taxes to Catholic school scholarships at no extra cost to you.

The state of Missouri allows any person or business to re-direct up to half of your annual tax liability to education. Tax dollars you will be paying the state anyway can help fund diocesan Catholic school scholarships. It’s easy:

  • Check your W-2 for what you owed the state last year.
  • Estimate what you will owe and purchase your tax credits now
  • When you file your taxes, you get 100% credit for the amount you reserved and paid (up to 50% of your liability).
  • You have up to four more years to use the tax credits.

This amazing program strengthens our entire diocese as more children and families grow in faith. 

Call (816) 714-2338 to discover how your personal or business state income taxes can provide a brighter future for a child. The Bright Futures Fund is designated by the state to provide scholarships to qualified students, all funded with purchased tax credits.
