AARP TAX-AIDE PROGRAM NEEDS VOLUNTEERS
The AARP Tax-Aide program, which assists with tax preparation at the Amador Senior Center, is looking for volunteers.  The program, which has been in place in Amador County for about 25 years, provides free tax preparation for individuals of all ages.
Tax-Aide volunteers are trained as tax counselors (trained by Tax-Aide and certified by IRS) and as client facilitators (who assist clients at our tax site). There is a one day orientation class in December and a one week class for tax counselors starts on January 20th.  Tax work is done from February 1st to April 15th.   The tax preparation work this year will be done exclusively at the Amador Senior Center.
Volunteers need to be computer literate but do not need any special tax or accounting skills.  Of the 16 volunteers that we currently have in the program (and we need 4-5 more), only a few have been CPA’s or tax preparers.  Also, just as a general reference, volunteers can expect to work one or two days a week during the tax season.
If interested, please call Al Bierce at 267-0855 or Rick Sprenkel at 296-2771

*SERNA FAMILY FIRE RELIEF UPDATE** - HelpAmador.com
VIA CITIZEN REPORT: "I just had to share something that I had the pleasure of witnessing [yesterday] regarding this. A 2nd grade girl, whose mom is friends with the family, came into her class and asked her teacher if she could give the girl her "Christmas to Remember" trip to KMart since she lost all her things. This from a 7 year old! I cried." - Suzanne Van, Plymouth

AARP TAX-AIDE PROGRAM NEEDS VOLUNTEERS
The AARP Tax-Aide program, which assists with tax preparation at the Amador Senior Center, is looking for volunteers.  The program, which has been in place in Amador County for about 25 years, provides free tax preparation for individuals of all ages.
Tax-Aide volunteers are trained as tax counselors (trained by Tax-Aide and certified by IRS) and as client facilitators (who assist clients at our tax site). There is a one day orientation class in December and a one week class for tax counselors starts on January 20th.  Tax work is done from February 1st to April 15th.   The tax preparation work this year will be done exclusively at the Amador Senior Center.
Volunteers need to be computer literate but do not need any special tax or accounting skills.  Of the 16 volunteers that we currently have in the program (and we need 4-5 more), only a few have been CPA’s or tax preparers.  Also, just as a general reference, volunteers can expect to work one or two days a week during the tax season.
If interested, please call Al Bierce at 267-0855 or Rick Sprenkel at 296-2771
