Single Hero
Support students and receive an Ohio tax credit
The Knights Ohio Tax Credit Fund is Hoban's Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO), and was created to allow donors to make donations to support tuition assistance for Hoban students while also receiving eligibility for an Ohio tax credit. It is a dollar-for-dollar credit but is limited to the lesser of $750 for an individual (or $1,500 if married filing jointly) or the donor's related State of Ohio tax liability.
Your contribution to the Knights Ohio Tax Credit Fund will directly impact Hoban students while giving you the power to direct your tax dollars. It is a win-win for taxpayer donors and our scholarship recipients. Please take advantage of this opportunity to direct your tax dollars and provide scholarship dollars to our students.
A taxpayer may also be eligible to receive a federal tax deduction for this contribution since it is considered a qualifying charitable contribution. This means that there could be both a state and a federal tax benefit for a charitable contribution, depending upon certain taxpayers’ situations.

WHY I GIVE TO THE
KNIGHTS OHIO TAX CREDIT FUND
"Hoban was a great experience for both of our daughters and we got some help financially while we were there that made all the difference at the time."
"No investment our family has made has paid off like Archbishop Hoban. We are proud to be members of the Hoban family."
"Our oldest of FOUR children is currently at Hoban, and we couldn't be happier with the opportunities he has been given. We hope to send his three younger siblings here also. This is definitely a good use of our money in that it provides financial help TO FAMILIES."
"Hoban continues to be that city on the hilltop that can't be hidden! The culture, community, academics and facilities are award-winning, and I couldn't be MORE proud to be a KNIGHT!"
