Tax-Aide Program Needs Volunteers to Help Taxpayers
(Flagler County) – Tax filing season may be months away, but the Flagler County Tax-Aide District is already seeking volunteers who want to serve their community through the AARP Foundation’s Tax-Aide program, said Sheri Muth, District Coordinator of Flagler County. Tax-Aide focuses on serving older adults with low to moderate income and helps them secure much-needed tax refunds.
Tax-Aide volunteers provide free tax preparation and filing services to taxpayers, as well as provide tech support, help organize, recruit volunteers, translate and more, Muth said. Anyone interested in helping can go to their website www.taxprepfree.net, or call (386) 313-4048 for details.
The time commitment can range from a few hours a week to 3 days per week during the period.
For the 2024 tax season: 28,300 volunteers helped taxpayers receive 1.3 billion in total refunds for more than 1.7 million people at 3,600 sites across the nation. Locally, 60 volunteers in various roles, located at 6 sites in Flagler County, helped more than 3,200 taxpayers. They helped more than 2,200 people secure over 2.7 million in refunds.
“All levels and types of experience are welcome.” Volunteers come from a variety of industries, range from retirees to college students, and do not need to be AARP members.
Tax-Aide volunteers make a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable older adults right in their communities by helping build their financial resilience. Even modest refunds can impact the lives of older adults, especially those living with low incomes. Our Tax-Aide volunteers help make sure they don’t miss out on the credits and deductions they have earned and need.
Dating back to 1968, Tax-Aide is the nation’s largest free, volunteer-based tax assistance and preparation program that began in Florida by 4 volunteers.
For more information, contact Sheri Muth at 386-243-5556 or go to the local website at www.taxprepfree.net
