Volunteer Income Tax Assistance and Financial Asset Building
Creating Assets, Savings and Hope (CA$H) Maine is a collaboration of nine statewide coalitions and the IRS, comprised of 50 nonprofit and
business partners, working together to help low- and moderate-income
Mainers make the most of their money. CA$H Maine offers free tax
preparation to qualified filers during the tax season with IRS-certified
volunteer tax preparers, and connects residents to financial education
resources with volunteer asset coaches, including financial education
and home-buying workshops, Family Development Accounts (FDAs) and credit
counseling.
In 2011, hundreds of volunteers statewide helped more than 3,610 Mainers file
their taxes, bringing nearly $7 million back to the Maine economy. The
first of the CA$H Maine Coalitions was established in the fall of 2002
in York and Franklin counties. Now there are nine coalitions statewide.
