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.
