DDid you know that you can fund scholarships for DCS students, and the state of Georgia will award you a tax credit for the same amount? We all have to pay state taxes anyway, so why not participate in the Qualified Education Expense (QEE) Tax Credit program and benefit yourself and City of Knowledge Islamic School.


A ll CK families, friends, and local businesses who pay taxes in Georgia should reserve your QEE tax credit by Dec. 31, 2023. You don’t have to pay anything prior to Dec. 31, all you have to do is “reserve” the tax credit and choose “City of Knowledge Islamic School” on the application. You will have time to determine the actual amount you want to contribute by March 2024. And then, when you file your 2024 state taxes, you will get all your money back as a tax credit (plus you can claim a deduction on your federal tax filing), so it really costs you nothing in the long run. If you are a business owner, please reserve your tax credit through your business to gain the maximum benefit.

So far through 2014, we have given out over $10,000,000 in scholarships.

Scholarship Amounts: Each month that we receive a donation for City of Knowledge Islamic School, your student will receive and equal share of the scholarship funds. For example, if we receive $10,000 in March for City of Knowledge Islamic School and there are 10 approved students, then each approved student at City of Knowledge Islamic School will receive a $1,000 scholarship at the end of March.
