United Way provides tax preparation services worth $2.8 million annually, to individuals who otherwise would could not afford professional services.  The service results in tax refunds and Earned Income Credits to people in need who would otherwise forfeit these funds.  Volunteers are needed to perform these services.  They are trained and certified by the IRS.  The tax season runs from January 22nd through April 15th, and volunteers are asked to commit to 3-4 hours per shift, once a week for 12 weeks.
