AARP TAX-AIDE SEEKS HAWAII VOLUNTEERS FOR 2010 SEASON

AARP Tax-Aide, the nation’s largest free, volunteer-run tax preparation and assistance service, is seeking volunteers across the state to help Hawaii’s taxpayers who are seeking assistance preparing and filing their 2010 tax returns.

Last year, more than 228 AARP Tax-Aide volunteers helped over 14,759 taxpayers across the state. They join the more than 34,000 AARP Tax-Aide volunteers across the country, helping millions of taxpayers each year.

Volunteers do not need to be an AARP member or retiree to participate.
 
AARP Tax-Aide volunteers receive free tax training and are reimbursed on a limited basis for qualified program-related expenses. They help taxpayers at sites around the state, learning new skills while giving back to countless communities.
 
“Since its inception, AARP Tax-Aide has assisted thousands of people in preparing and filing their tax returns,” said AARP Hawaii State Director Barbara Kim Stanton. “We could not do it without our hundreds of volunteers, who make an indelible mark on the communities they help.”
