Tax-Aide provides free tax preparation, primarily for senior citizens, at the Madison County Emergency Management Agency in London. Anyone who does his or her own taxes on a program such as TurboTax is an ideal candidate for the volunteer opportunity. Volunteers receive IRS-approved training, use IRS-provided computers and are mentored throughout the tax season. Volunteers save often financially pressed senior citizens the cost of paying a private preparer and provide a calm, reassuring and steady hand in a sometimes stressful situation.
