Every year, the East Bay Asian Local Development Corporation (EBALDC) hosts VITA, a program of the IRS that trains volunteers to provide free tax preparation for low-income individuals and families. VITA is an important and highly impactful poverty-alleviation tool that we pair with a Savings Initiative that encourages clients to save part of their refund. In 2024, our volunteers prepared over 1,300 returns and secured over $1.9 million in refunds for the community.

EBALDC’s VITA program is expanding to Laney College and is offering free tax preparation to all Laney students and employees.
