As the 2023-2024 tax season comes to a close, the VITA program provided by the Community Foundation and United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties has provided $2,018,746 in tax refunds for Volusia and Flagler County residents.
In total, the VITA program transmitted over 2,000 federal and state tax returns. Over 85 VITA volunteers dedicated over 3,500 hours to serve the community.
“None of this would be possible without our dedicated VITA volunteers, who generously contribute hours of their time each week to ensure qualifying community members receive free tax assistance," said Lawrence Anderson, Community Partnership manager at United Way VFC.
The Community Foundation and United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties are dedicated to supporting the ALICE (Asset Limited Income Constrained Employed) populations through initiatives like the VITA program. These efforts aim to assist individuals who, despite working diligently, face the risk of falling into poverty due to unforeseen circumstances. The VITA program can give those individuals a break and potentially ensure a refund back into their hands to pay their bills or deposit into their savings account to invest in their future.
The Community Foundation and United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties seeks to thank the following locations and their volunteers:
Flagler County:
Volusia County:
