GAF seeks tax program volunteers for next year

People often find filing their income tax returns overwhelming and seek help. The AARP Tax Program, sponsored by the Golden Age Foundation (GAF), needs volunteers for its tax filing program. Volunteers will provide free tax preparation and e-filing to residents. This will relieve the stress of the residents and help them get the refunds they deserve. Experience is not necessary. AARP and GAF will provide all the training that support volunteers need to provide a great service to the community.

The current positions that need to be filled are:

• Tax-Aide: Work directly with taxpayers to prepare their tax returns.

• Client Facilitator: Greet clients and help organize their

documents.

• Telephone Assistant: First line of contact to schedule appointments for clients.

To volunteer, people must be computer literate and attend training session. Volunteers will work 1-2 days a week for 4-5 hours during tax season, Feb. 5-April 10.

To apply, call Diana Lambert at 562-860-2844.
