2016 ANNUAL REPORT$25.3 million in tax refunds went to hardworking people

592 volunteers donated 29,213 hours of their time

13,461 taxpayers filed 28,712 tax returns for free

1,234 taxpayers saved $1.9 million of their tax refunds

139 people reached financial goals in our coaching program

New space enhanced our services and ability to testIn 2016, we opened our new service center in the lower level of our main office location. With the new and expanded space, we’re able to test out new approaches to improve our services and reach more people. We are now open more hours, have added a drop-off option for tax preparation, and are able to provide services in a space that customers have said is professional and dignified.

Hosted our first-ever taxathonIn order to meet the demand during our busiest weekend of the year, we hosted our first-ever, two-day, 24-hour tax preparation marathon. We served 222 taxpayers, completed 437 tax returns, returned $744,625 in refunds, and 59 people saved some of their refunds. The fun and energetic event garnered coverage from two TV stations and has been replicated by free tax prep sites in other states.

Grew our individual giving programIn 2016, we raised more than $230,000 from individual donations, more than ever before. Individual donations give nonprofit organizations diversity and flexibility in funding and are key to long-term health. 650 people generously supported our work by giving through appeals, workplace campaigns, specific asks and events like Give to the Max Day, where we raised nearly $87,000.
