Last week, Foundation Communities opened the Tax Season and inaugurated

their new Community Financial Center. They are now on their way to

preparing over 20,000 tax returns and bringing back over $25 million in

refunds to the Austin community. Click on the links to see some of the

news coverage, to watch the speakers' remarks and to see staff's photos

of the event. This new building will greatly improve Foundation

Communities' ability to serve more people and provide them with the

tools to plan for a better future. www.foundcom. org/get-financia lly-stable/ get-your- taxes-done/ Here are a few things you can do to make this a successful tax season: 1. Print the flyer from

http://files. e2ma.net/ 33411/assets/ docs/ctc_ flyer.pdf - showing their 8

Tax Prep Centers and their hours. Share it with anyone you know who

might qualify for their services.

2. Forward this email to your friends and family - and your

listserv - asking them to do the same.

3. If you know someone in the media, make sure they know about this

service. With your help, no one who is qualified for free assistance will have to

pay to file their taxes this year. And many, many folks will get tax

refunds they didn't even know they had coming! New community financial center offer free tax filing... click here
