Last Updated: July 16, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of educationcovenantproject.com (the “Site”), operated by the Education Covenant Project (“ECP,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. About ECP and the Site

ECP partners with Jewish day schools and their communities to help them prepare for and take advantage of a federal scholarship tax credit. ECP provides strategic planning, campaign support, and pledge coordination. ECP is not a Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO), a law firm, or a tax advisory service, and does not itself accept or distribute tax-credit-eligible scholarship donations.

2. Pledges Are Non-Binding

  • A “pledge” submitted through the Site is a non-binding statement of intent only. It is not a contract, not a legally enforceable commitment, and not a charitable donation.
  • Submitting a pledge does not obligate you to make any future donation, and does not obligate ECP, any school, or any SGO to provide you with any scholarship, tax credit, or other benefit.
  • The federal scholarship tax credit referenced on the Site is not active until January 2027. No tax-credit-eligible donations can be made, and no scholarships can be distributed, until that date and until applicable state and federal requirements are satisfied.
  • Pledges are collected solely to help participating schools estimate anticipated community participation and plan responsibly. Actual donations, if and when made, will be governed by separate terms provided by the applicable SGO or donation platform at that time.
  • You may modify or withdraw a pledge at any time by contacting us; doing so carries no penalty or obligation.

3. No Legal, Tax, or Financial Advice

Information on the Site about the federal scholarship tax credit, eligibility, or the pledge and donation process is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, or financial advice, and should not be relied upon as such. You should consult your own attorney, accountant, or financial advisor regarding your specific situation before making any tax-related decision.

4. Future Donations to ECP

ECP intends to accept direct donations to support its own operations, separate from school-specific pledges or SGO donations.
