$207,850 pledged for Lourdes in EITC
COAL TOWNSHIP - The Our Lady of Lourdes Alumni Foundation and its participants in the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program generated $207,850 in approved applications as of Sept. 5.
As long as the donors keep their pledge, the money will be available for tuition assistance beginning in the 2013-14 school year via Lourdes' Neumann Scholarship Foundation.
Donors need to send pledges to the foundation, if they haven't already done so, and will receive a receipt that goes to the state and allows for the tax credit for 2012 business taxes.
For more information, e-mail OLOLinfo@SupportLourdes.org or go to the OLOL alumni page on Facebook.
