If you have the skills to fix a bicycle, you can get donated medical equipment clean, working properly, and ready to give away to anyone who needs it.  This program saves people a third of a MILLION dollars per year on their medical needs.  You can make this big a difference in someone's life!

What is better than getting out of jail free?  Getting out of jail with a GED!!!  Our tutoring program inside the Metro Jail is helping people go to work at good jobs when they get out, and keep from coming back. Your tutoring and admin skills can help WOMEN get into the program, study the right things, and pass the test!  We especially need a woman (or two!) who can help keep testing and paperwork up to date as well as teach reading and writing skills.

Are you good at helping people put their life on a tax form?  You will get all the training you need to save local families LOTS of money by helping them get their taxes done for free.  Or volunteer to help with desk duty, welcoming and directing clients to meet with tax preparers.

Goodwill Gulf Coast will be staffing two locations to prepare taxes for free for local residents.  The Ladd Learning Center is located at 2440 Gordon Smith Drive in Mobile 36617, and the Azalea Community Center is 300-F Azalea Road, Mobile 36609.  Hours for VITA will be posted in January.  Spend this fall learning all you need to know with VITA training, so you will be ready for the tax season in late January.  Next class starts soon!
