Monmouth County Volunteers for AARP Tax-Aide Sought

Information sessions on the AARP Tax-Aide team at libraries throughout the county.

The country's largest free, volunteer-run tax preparation and assistance service, AARP Tax-Aide, is looking for volunteers in Monmouth County! Participants will help taxpayers who need help preparing and filing their 2011 tax returns.

You don't need to be an AARP member or retiree to take part - and you don't even need former tax preparation experience. Volunteers will get to help taxpayers across sites nationwide, and will learn new skills while giving back.

Free tax training, which leads to an IRS certification, are offered to all volunteers. Also, participants will be reimbursed on a limited basis for qualified program-related expenses.

“I have found AARP Tax-Aide to be one of the most enjoyable volunteer experiences around. It is a pleasure working with a great group of volunteers from all age groups, ranging from recent college grads to retirees who have been doing this for many years,” Dennis Hartenstine, the AARP Tax-
Aide Training Coordinator for Monmouth County, said.

Almost 4,000 Monmouth County taxpayers were helped by over 80 Monmouth County AARP Tax-Aide volunteers last year. Those 4,000 are part of the 35,000 volunteers nationwide who help millions of taxpayers every year.
