We offer volunteers the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of Oregon's low-income Latino families - no Spanish required, just the desire to help!

By volunteering just four hours a week during tax season as a trained Quality Reviewer you can provide a vital service and in turn an important step towards economic security to those most in need. You will also gain a meaningful new experience and become a part of a great team of like-minded people!
