78 Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) volunteers got up early this past foggy Saturday morning to attend an all-day VITA/EITC tax training at Heald College in Fresno. VITA volunteers will participate in three Saturday's of intense tax training to prepare themselves for the VITA/EITC Volunteer Program, which launches the season on Saturday, January 30, 2010.
VITA voulunteers will help staff 35 VITA sites throughtout Fresno County and prepare federal and state taxes for low to moderate income individuals and families at no cost. For more information, to find the nearest VITA site to you, or to find out if you qualify, just dial 2-1-1.
Thank you Heald College for hosting UWFC VITA Volunteers.
