CA$H Tax Preparers and Opportunity Guides

Help our neighbors save money and increase their financial stability as a CA$H Volunteer. Training is provided and no experience is required. Volunteers are needed from late January through mid-April. Visit uwsme.org/cashvolunteer to complete the interest form.
 

IRS-Certified Volunteer Tax Preparer: Review client intake paperwork and discuss it with clients before or as you prepare their taxes using online software. Volunteers will receive online training and take an IRS certification exam. Volunteers can earn up to 18 CE hours.

Opportunity Guide: Help connect people to resources that will help them meet their financial needs. Discuss financial goals and challenges and possible resources. 

"You come away feeling you receive more than you give. The sense of accomplishment when you are able to share your knowledge, experience, and expertise with others. Knowing you’ve had a positive impact and made a neighbor’s today better and their tomorrow easier."

Rebecca Winslow, CA$H Volunteer, Gorham Savings Bank.
