    Description

    We are looking for greeters for our Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, which provides free tax help to working families. No tax experience is necessary!

    Greeters assist with

    • Welcoming customers
    • Ensuring that they have all required documents
    • Giving out a packet that the customer must complete before they can begin their tax preparation.

    Greeters are needed every Wednesday from 9:00am - 3:30pm starting the last week in January through April 15th. We hope you will consider donating your time to this great cause!

    • All greeters for the VITA program must take a simple code of ethics test prior to volunteering.
