Contibute your Taxes & Support CCA Students
Scholarship Funds
Scholarship funds are secured from Georgia tax payers and businesses who simply pre-pay a portion of their state income taxes by contributing them to the Alyn Scholarship Fund. ASF then uses those contributions to award scholarships to eligible students.
There's no cost to contribute as participants receive a dollar-for-dollar state tax credit.
Because we grant some degree of a scholarship to all eligible students, it takes a large number of participants to meet the demand. Please support CCA students and families by redirecting your state income taxes to ASF.
The more money we have, the more we give.

Note: Participants can direct that their donation be used at a school(s) of their choosing; like CCA
However, they cannot, in any way, determine which particular student(s) receive a scholarship or the award amount that a student receives.

Why Redirect Your Taxes
Everyone works hard for their money and it's theirs to spend. However, we're all required to pay a portion of our earnings in the form of taxes without any direct oversight as to where our money goes or who gets to benefit from it.
The Education Tax Credit Program provides an alternative.
Georgia tax payers have an opportunity to support students at a GA private school of their choice using the same money they'll otherwise pay in taxes. Instead of sending their money to the politicians in Atlanta, they can redirect a portion of their taxes to ASF and directly support students at Cornerstone Christian Academy.
It's your money. It's your choice.
It's no secret that the cost of private education is shared among all families who participate. Private schools don't get the luxury of tapping into local property tax revenues, SPLOST initiatives or state/federal funding. So, the more students that attend a private school, the more families that share the cost which reduces the financial burden for everyone. By using this scholarship program to make it more affordable for students to attend CCA, the opportunity to grow the enrollment is very real which will lighten the load for all families and provide the school with additional financial resources to improve programs and facilities.
