Each year United Ways and other non-profits help their community by completing thousands of free tax returns, for people in need through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, resulting in thousands of dollars being kept in our communities. United Way of Central Jersey in collaboration with a host of Monmouth County community partners are recruiting additional volunteers in various capacities to help with this effort.
Training is provided to assist volunteers with completing the required certifications. The sites anticipated opening dates are from February 7, 2025 - March 25, 2025 (weekly on Tuesday)
Volunteers will volunteer at any one of two sites: the Community Affairs Resource Center (CARC) in Freehold and/or the Launch Center in Asbury Park to provide this valuable service.
