Our Mother of Perpetual Help Catholic School (OMPH School) in Ephrata has announced that this year, over $80,000 was designated for the school through Educational Improvement Tax Credits (EITC) and Special Purpose Entity (SPE) tax credits. The contributing companies and individuals were Bravo Foundation, Clear Tech EDI Solutions, Cliffside Industries Ltd., Donegal Mutual Insurance Company, Douple Agency Inc., Ephrata National Bank, Heller's Gas, iDrive Interactive, Performance Roofing Associates, Sahd Metal Recycling, the Miller family, and the Rudy family.

The EITC Program provides tax credits to qualifying Pennsylvania business corporations and individuals that have donated to educational institutions. Over the years, hundreds of students have received their OMPH education in part because of the contributions of these businesses and individuals.

Readers may consult an accountant or tax preparer to find out if a business or individual qualifies for the EITC program. Those who qualify may contact Teresa Hartman in the OMPH School advancement office at advancement@omph.org or 717-738-2414 for assistance in giving to OMPH School.
