Nashville Pride

Free VITA tax preparation

A special kick-off event took place at 100 Oaks Mall on Saturday, January 28, with food, games for kids, and IRS-trained tax help to mark the opening of 12 free tax assistance sites around the city.

Every year, thousands of hard-working Nashville area families lose out when they fail to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and don’t get the refunds they are eligible to receive.

Last year, more than 4,600 individuals were helped at Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites in the area. Nashville families claiming the EITC received an average refund of $1,500.

The Nashville Wealth Building Alliance (NWBA) is a coalition of government, business and non-profit organizations with over 100 members committed to helping Nashville families receive the federal income tax return they have earned. Call 2-1-1 for hours and locations throughout the tax season.
