What is CASH?

Creating Assets, Savings & Hope (CASH) volunteers provide free tax preparation services to low- and moderate-income community members in Charlottesville. Each year, we contribute hundreds of thousands of dollars in direct economic impact to the Charlottesville community. Our volunteers are undergraduate and graduate students from all backgrounds and majors.

No prior tax knowledge is necessary to become a member -- we teach you everything you need to know to pass the Volunteer Income Tax Assistant (VITA) certification exam!
