STATE PARTICIPATION

Expanding Education Opportunities for Families

through the Virginia’s Education Improvement Scholarships Tax Credit Program

For many Virginia families, finances stand between their child and a Christ-centered education. Children’s Tuition Fund exists to help remove that barrier, connecting contributors and schools to provide scholarships for economically disadvantaged and special-needs students across the state.

As an approved Scholarship Foundation, CTF partners with Virginia schools to identify eligible families and directs scholarship funds to qualifying students, all while ensuring full compliance with state regulations.
