In 2025, Ohio Scholarship Fund reported 78 grants totaling $1,929,857. The median grant was $6,777; grants ranged from $55 to $237,601.

The organization’s website says donors can designate donations to a listed school or to the general fund. General-fund donations, after board approval, support scholarships for students at enrolled schools experiencing financial hardship. The school partnership agreement describes a process in which schools request scholarship funds for the upcoming school year by uploading a scholarship payment request form to their dashboard; after board approval, payment is made to the school by ACH within three days of its first day of school. The agreement also says donors may restrict gifts to awards for eligible students at their chosen school.
