Scholarship for Gesiebi Odu!

Dear family and friends,
This fundraiser aims to create a scholarship for our daughter, Gesiebi Odu, who will be attending Xavier College Preparatory this Fall.
Gesiebi is passionate about pursuing a career in medicine, and we firmly believe that Xavier College Preparatory is the ideal place for her high school education.
In search of ways to lower her tuition we learned about the Arizona tax credit program that allows taxpayers to choose how their state income tax dollars are used and get a dollar-for-dollar credit. By contributing to STO4KIDZ, you’ll take the tax credit and Gesiebi will receive a scholarship to lower her tuition at (XCP) . Unlike a charitable deduction, which lowers taxable income, a tax credit directly reduces your state tax liability, which results in a larger refund or less owed taxes when you file.
We would be grateful if you consider making a dollar-for-dollar tax credit contribution to help lower her tuition at Xavier, paving the path towards her dream. Your support would mean the world to us and make a lasting impact on her future.

2025 Tax Year
When you contribute to a school tuition organization like STO4KIDZ you can take the tax credit as long as you contribute by April 15 of each year, or the designated date set by IRS, even if you plan to file for an extension. You get 100% of it back as a credit; your Arizona tax liability is reduced dollar-for-dollar.
For your convenience here is a step-by-step guide, link to FAQ page and the Donor Form.
Please list Gesiebi Odu at Xavier College Preparatory on your contribution form. STO4KIDZ will email you a receipt for your taxes with instruction on how to claim your dollar-for-dollar tax credit.
** If you live outside Arizona and want to make a "Charitable Donation" to support lower their tuition, your contribution is fully tax-deductible. STO4KIDZ is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Please take a couple of minutes to watch a short video at the end of this page which explains how the AZ tax credit works and call us or you can speak directly with the STO4KIDZ staff with any questions.
