Low Income Initiatives
Advocate Information
We
are committed to sustained efforts to help the low-income residents of the
middle South by advocating change and supporting actions that offer
substantive, lasting solutions.
By taking on the challenge, educating ourselves and others, and seeking
positive options, we can harness the awesome power of individuals, our
communities, businesses and the government to make real change happen. We can
build communities of change that may appear small individually, but all
together produce big results.
Will you take Credit this Year?
The IRS Earned Income Tax Credit is for working families who earn less
than $39,000 annually. If you qualify for this program or if you know of a
person that may qualify, it could be worth up to $4,500 this year. Over 22
million people already benefit from the Earned Income Tax Credit program! Many
more people are eligible, but do not know the program exists. Billions of
dollars are left unclaimed each year.
