Help others with tax prep and make a difference in the community!
What is VITA?
VITA is an IRS national program that provides free, quality tax preparation services to low- and moderate-income families and individuals throughout our 13-county footprint. Our volunteers prepare tax returns for taxpayers who qualify for VITA assistance. All volunteer tax preparers are trained and IRS certified. These volunteers can come from a large variety of backgrounds – they don’t need to be accountants or CPAs. Are you detail-oriented, meticulous, and good with people? We offer several training avenues for your convenience.
How can you make a difference?
