Here's What the Results Really Mean
If most leaders answered "very familiar" and you didn't — that's your signal. The schools that understand the EFTC first will be the schools positioned to receive scholarship dollars first.
And if you're in the majority who couldn't yet explain it to a parent, you're not behind — the program is new to almost everyone. But "new to everyone" is exactly when preparation pays the most.
Either way, familiarity isn't the real question. Readiness is.
Is Your School Ready to Capture EFTC Dollars?
The EFTC creates a federal tax credit for individuals who donate to scholarship granting organizations — which means, for the first time, families and supporters across the country can direct federal tax dollars toward scholarships at schools like yours.
But funding won’t flow to every school automatically. It will flow to the schools that are prepared: the ones with the right relationships, the right communication plan, and the right steps completed before the dollars start moving. That’s what the EFTC Readiness Scorecard measures.
In about 3 minutes, you’ll find out:
- Where your school stands today — scored across the key readiness areas that determine whether scholarship dollars can actually reach your families.
- Your biggest gap — the one thing most likely to leave money on the table if it isn't addressed.
- What to do first — a clear next step for your leadership team, not a pile of homework.

Why FundEDU?
FundEDU has spent a decade helping schools turn tax credit programs into scholarship funding — over $100 million raised for families through the PA EITC program. The EFTC is new, but this work isn’t new to us.
It’s also personal. Our founder watched his own community’s Catholic school close after 50 years — not for lack of families who loved it, but for lack of funding. The EFTC is a chance to make sure that story stops repeating. We’d like to help your school be ready for it.
