Forms Completion Assistance Print E-mail

The Salvation Army is proud to offer two programs to assist members of the community with completing forms for federal and state income taxes and other service forms.


Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) is provided to seniors and low income individuals who require assistance with federal and state income tax forms. The program is staffed by IRS trained volunteers who use our facilities to prepare taxes.

Social Services staff at The Salvation Army also assists individuals who need help with Social Security disability applications, completing medical forms and writing letters for those who are not able to complete the process themselves.

 
kids day fundraiser

Kids' Day is a collaborative effort between The Modesto Bee and The Salvation Army to benefit children's programs at the Red Shield Center in South Modesto. Since its inception, Kids' Day has raised more than $628,407 to benefit the children who use the center in one of Modesto's poorest areas.

This year Kids' Day will be held on Tuesday May 15, 2012. We want to exceed last years' goal and offer more help with the positive programs that are reaching youth in our community. With your help, we can do it!

Here's how you can be part of this great community event:

  • Volunteer to sell papers on May 15th
  • Purchase Kids' Day papers to resell or donate to local schools
  • Remind your friends, employees and neighbors to have a $1.00 ready on May 15
  • Donate online
All sales last from 7:00am until 1:00pm. Read more here!
