Tax Assistance for Low-Income Individuals

The Hunger Action Network is sponsoring a major effort to assist low-income individuals with their tax preparation. They and the VITA program need your help. You don’t need to enjoy filling out IRS forms to volunteer. Volunteers can either share their accounting skills or help schedule appointments and do other support work. To volunteer, call Diana at 412/395-6569, then let us know that you did by logging on to the Volunteer Pool web site and indicating that you are volunteering for this program.
