SUMMARY:Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) New Volunteer Information Session
DESCRIPTION:United Way of Central Alabama’s Free Tax Preparation program has served over a thousand clients this year.  As a result\, area residents saved over $450\,000 in tax prep fees and received over $1\,300\,000 in refunds! None of this would have been possible without our amazing tax prep volunteers\, who have dedicated over 1\,100 hours this tax year! \nHowever\, the demand for our service is far greater than our current volunteer capacity.  We need your help as a volunteer to serve our community for the 2024 tax season.  To learn more about our program and opportunities to get involved\, please join us for a new volunteer information session where we overview volunteer roles and preview the necessary IRS trainings to volunteer. \nJoin us for a new volunteer information session\, and you will:\n\n\n\n\n\nMeet the United Way team.\nGain insight into the Free Tax Program’s impact on our community.\nLearn what it’s like to be a tax volunteer.\nTour our newly renovated workspace.\nPre-register to reserve a seat for your preferred training date (before registration opens to the general public).
