Georgia Foundation for Public Education

It is peach season in Georgia, a reminder that it is also the perfect time to support public education through PEACH. 🍑

Through the PEACH Education Tax Credit, individuals and corporations can direct a portion of their Georgia state income taxes to fund innovative K–12 public school programs at no additional cost.

Just like the peaches Georgia is known for, PEACH helps nurture and strengthen communities by investing in students and schools statewide.

Camden County Schools is investing in the whole student, and PEACH is helping make these initiatives possible. 🍑

Through the PEACH Education Tax Credit, the district is working to fund two key projects: expanded mental health programming and summer and after-school opportunities for students.

💛 The mental health initiative will bring programs like 7 Mindsets and Second Step into classrooms, along with additional counseling support to strengthen student well-being across the district.

☀️ The summer and after-school programming will provide structured opportunities that support academic growth, social-emotional development, and life skills beyond the school day.

Did you know you have a choice in how your PEACH dollars are put to work? 🍑

When you participate in the PEACH Education Tax Credit, you can direct your contribution to the GFPE general fund, which supports innovative programs and grants across Georgia, or you can designate it directly to a PEACH School Fundraising Plan Partner school or district working on a specific project in your community.

Both options make a real difference for Georgia students. The choice is yours.
