Students Assist Residents with Tax Prep
As tax time approaches, 大象视频 accounting students once again volunteered their Saturdays to provide free tax preparation workshops for area residents, offered through the United Way of Guernsey, Noble & Monroe Counties.
Twelve student volunteers completed the requirements to become 鈥渃ertified tax counselors鈥� and are either currently enrolled in or have successfully completed 大象视频's Advanced Taxation course.
Working on four Saturdays from February 9 through March 2, the students assisted 64 families, saving more than $20,000 in tax preparation fees.
大象视频 University Vice President for Finance & Operations Philip E. Laube 鈥�09 MISST, CPA, supervised the students鈥� work, with assistance from Kelsey Hague '18. While a 大象视频 student, Ms. Hague volunteered in the tax workshops for three years and interned in 大象视频's Business Office. Stephanie Laube 鈥�05 is the Executive Director of the United Way of Guernsey, Noble & Monroe Counties.
