 Volunteer Tax Preparers Needed
Get involved in the country's largest anti-poverty effort. Join 550 other volunteers helping low-income families in King County find their way through the tax-filing maze. By volunteering once per week during the 2010 tax season you can help us meet our goal of putting more than $17 million back into the pockets of low-income working families. Speakers of Chinese, Spanish, Somali, Vietnamese and Russian are especially needed. All volunteers receive free tax preparation training and are certified by the IRS, so no tax experience is necessary.

United Way Volunteer Readers Needed!
Did you know that a typical child from a low-income family enters kindergarten with a listening vocabulary of 3,000 words, while a typical child of a higher income family enters with a listening vocabulary of 20,000 words? Help us bridge the gap with books. Sign up to be a Volunteer Reader today!
