The EITC (Educational Improvement Tax Credit) grant, administered by the Wayne County Community Foundation, is designed to fund innovative and unique educational programs in Wayne County, Pennsylvania. The grant particularly emphasizes projects that integrate technological upgrades and new instructional methodologies, and that cannot be supported through regular school budgets. Eligible programs may supplement or reconstruct existing curricula, operate outside regular school hours, offer specialized instruction, internships, or opportunities for college credit, and create specialized learning environments. Funding is made possible through contributions from businesses participating in Pennsylvania’s EITC Program, which are then distributed to approved educational initiatives that enrich the academic experience for students in the region.
