Get Free Tax Preparation and Help Babies Be Healthy
23-Mar-09
Seattle, WA – Have you tackled your income taxes yet?  Are all of your receipts and forms still tucked away in an envelope while you count down the days to April 15?  Well, the March of Dimes and Liberty Tax Service have the answer for you – free tax preparation while you help give every baby a healthy start in life. 

 

On March 27, Liberty Tax Service customers who donate $50 or more to the March of Dimes will get their 2008 taxes prepared for free.  For participating offices in Washington state, call toll free at 1-866-871-1040 or go to LibertyTax.com.

Funds raised will enable the March of Dimes to help moms before, during and after pregnancy get the information and support they need to have healthy babies.  If something goes wrong, the March of Dimes offers hope, information and comfort to help parents cope with premature birth, a child with a birth defect, or the loss of a baby.   The March of Dimes researches the problems that threaten the health of babies and works to prevent them.

Liberty Tax Service, a national sponsor of the March for Babies, is helping to spread awareness and provide opportunities for the community to get involved with March for Babies.  In addition to the Free Tax Day on March 27, donations to the March of Dimes are being accepted at Liberty Tax offices throughout the tax season.   To register for any of the eight March for Babies walks in Washington state, visit marchforbabies.org, or call toll-free (800) 291-DIME to sign up as an individual, to start a corporate, family or friends team.
