An Opportunity to
Love Our Community “An Urgent Need for Volunteers”February
5-6 – 10 am to 6 pm – Turtle Creek Mall (the old Steve and Barry's
space near Target) HELP WITH
TAXES: The United Way of NEA is hosting an event in February
that will be known as CASH - Creating Awareness of Savings and Health.
This CASH event is an answer to a problem within our community relating
to how some lower income people are not taking advantage of the Earned
Income Tax Credit (EITC)! During this event, we, a group of volunteers,
are going to prepare their basic tax return and file it with the IRS
with the IRS approval of the process. You do not have to be an
accountant or CPA to do this. Training will be provided. Your help
could make a huge difference in the lives of many lower income people in
our region – many of whom do not know they are eligible for a
substantial income tax credit. If you are interested in volunteering or
learning more, call the United Way office at 935-3658 or Michael Givens
at 268-9708. See below for more detailed information.
SERVE AT THE BLCC BOOTH: The Better Life
Counseling Center will host a booth at this event to make free marriage
counseling available to lower income people. The counseling will be
paid for by a TANF grant (Transitional Assistance for Needy Families).
Your role would be to man the booth, greet the people, and provide
information about free marriage counseling if needed. You can serve an
hour or several hours. Call Tammy at the BLCC to let her know your
willingness to serve and she will schedule you – 935-HOPE. Your
assistance is much needed.
OTHER
OPPORTUNITIES: There is a need for other volunteers as well –
such as health screening, greeting, etc. Just call the United Way
Office above for more information.
