Kerby Centre provides assistance with income tax preparation for low-income seniors. Volunteers prepare income tax returns in March and April, and even after the tax season is over!
Kerby Centre helps seniors live their best lives. We could not do this without the help of our generous supporters who make our tax program possible. THANK YOU!
