CA$H is a year-round resource, providing outreach and education about ways you can make the most of your money. For over 10 years CA$H has offered free tax preparation to qualified filers during tax season; helped employers bring financial education tools to their employees; and educated hard-working families and individuals about programs in the community that can increase your income, reduce debt, and build savings.
