Midcoast CA$H

​​Midcoast CA$H (Creating Assets, Savings, and Hope), an initiative of United Way, offers free tax preparation to qualified families and individuals and shares information about programs in the community that can increase their income, reduce debt, and build savings.
 
Highly trained, IRS certified volunteers provide free income tax preparation with electronic filing for those with an income less than $54,000. As required by the IRS, this service is FREE.
 
In addition to free tax preparation, Midcoast CA$H’s Asset Organizer helps people access financial resources by connecting them with programs that provide help with budgeting, home buying, student loans, improving credit, reducing debt, heating and energy costs, going back to school, savings, legal services and much more.

  • Served 403 people in the Midcoast area and brought back $714,979 in federal and state refunds.
  • Saved people and estimated $70,525 in tax preparation costs.
