Listings reflect organizations operating under South Carolina’s tax-credit scholarship program and/or national networks; this is not an official federal designation. No state has submitted its §25F SGO list yet. Under Treasury’s temporary regulations, the first lists are due to the IRS by February 15, 2027, each list must include every qualifying organization located in the state that asks to be on it, and the IRS publishes the combined list on irs.gov. This directory will be updated as the lists are published.
