For over forty years, BLOCS has been committed to providing eligible families access to high-quality, values-based education, providing students with a positive and successful pathway forward.

Viewed as the premiere scholarship organization in PA, BLOCS partners with more than 400 schools to provide over 33,000 need-based scholarships each year. Through partnership with Pennsylvania’s DCED’s Educational Improvement (EITC) and Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit (OSTC) Programs, BLOCS offers donors up to 90-99% credits on their Pennsylvania taxes when redirecting their personal or corporate tax liability as need based scholarships through BLOCS.

More than 96¢ of every dollar donated to BLOCS is distributed directly to families through our partner schools. We award tuition assistance to as many children as possible. Our work will continue until every family who desires a value-based education can afford one.

BLOCS raises more than $140M annually in private and corporate donations for families in need.

We believe every school-aged child, regardless of race, religion or financial circumstance, deserves a future filled with promise and hope.
