Volunteer With VITA

Every year, our VITA program helps thousands of families file their taxes accurately and for free—Generating millions of dollars in Savings, Refunds, and credits for our community. None of this would be possible without our dedicated volunteers.

By giving just a few hours a week, you can:

  • Gain new skills and certifications

  • Build relationships and meet like-minded people

  • Directly impact families by putting more money back in their pockets

  • Be part of a county-wide movement that transforms lives through financial stability

Must be a US citizen and at least 18 years of age to volunteer.

No Experience? No Problem.

You don’t need to be a “numbers person” to make a difference! We provide free IRS-approved training and certification. You choose the role that fits your skills and comfort level.
