Financial Security

We connect people to education, tools, and job training so they have financial freedom and peace of mind. Together, we can create a stronger financial future for every generation.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to earn a living that can sustain a family and build security for future generations. That’s why we’re helping hard-working families make ends meet while connecting them with the education, financial tools, and job training opportunities to empower them to create a better, more sustainable future for themselves and their loved ones.

OUR PROGRAMS TO BUILD A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

A woman works with a client to help them file their taxes for free as part of our Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program.

BECOME A TAX PREP VOLUNTEER

Our free income tax prep service helps individuals with low-to-moderate income file their taxes for free. The program helps participants avoid costly fees to have their taxes figured while also identifying tax credits, helping them keep more of their hard earned money.

Want to learn a new skill or do more volunteer work? Every year we recruit 200+ volunteers to assist with our free tax prep program. If filing someone’s taxes seems daunting to you, don’t fret! No experience is needed. We provide free training (classroom style or online) to become certified with the IRS. This volunteer opportunity is great for young professionals looking to build their resumes, retirees wanting a temporary volunteer gig and anyone with a passion to help others.
