What is GOAL?
In 2008, Georgia elected officials passed the Education Expense Credit law to provide Georgia families with access to better educational opportunities for their children. Through this program, qualified Georgia taxpayers may redirect a portion of their income tax to fund scholarships for eligible students. Brookwood School partners with the Georgia GOAL Scholarship Program, Inc. to facilitate this program.
If you have questions about your role as a GOAL Supporter, please contact Kelly Campbell, our Director of Advancement, at 229-226-8070 or kcampbell@brookwoodschool.org.
