Minnesota  Afterschool  Advance

​

"Minnesota Afterschool Advance (MAA) helps Minnesota families who meet income requirements use the powerful but underutilized Minnesota K-12 Education Tax Credit to help them pay for educational afterschool programs like tutoring, music lessons, and art classes.

​

MAA pays 75% of the eligible education expenses for activities, up to $1,000 per child in grades K-12.  For example, if an activity costs $200, we’ll pay $150, and you pay only $50!"
