APESF has been a trusted
STO since 1998

We know change can bring questions—but we want you to feel confident about what’s ahead. APESF is honored to step in and continue the mission T.O.P.S. began of helping students access the education that’s right for them through Arizona’s tax credit scholarship program. As you join the family, the first step is to apply with APESF.

APESF and the Arizona Tax Credit Program

Here is a quick overview of APESF, the Arizona tax credit program, and the tools available to help you secure tuition scholarships. Whether you’re a family applying for scholarships or a donor making a difference, this video will walk you through exactly what to expect with APESF.

Next Steps

The application should only take a few minutes to fill out. Be sure to include all students on ONE application. (Look for the green “Add Student” button if you are applying for more than one child.) Applications are required only one time per school year. Click HERE to begin.

You will use this customized page to share the opportunity to donate and recommend your child with your network of AZ taxpayers. Anyone who owes taxes to the state of Arizona can donate and recieve a DOLLAR-FOR-DOLLAR credit on their taxes. Click HERE for more info.

When you become an APESF donor, you’re not just giving—you’re directing your Arizona state tax dollars to help students access the education they deserve. Every dollar you give can be taken as a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your AZ return, at no net cost to you. Click HERE to donate.
