Yale University Students Hold 2023 VITA Tax Clinics on Fellowship Place’s Campus

For the sixth consecutive year, Fellowship Place offered free income tax preparation services for our clients with the help of Yale students trained by the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program sponsored by the IRS. In 2023, clinics were held on Feb. 25 and April 1 with approximately 50 individuals served. Pictured from left to right are Yale volunteers Frederick Freeman, Lydia Broderick, Emrett Shell, and Mishan Oseragbaje. Special thanks to Joanna Wypasek who coordinated and scheduled more than a dozen of her fellow students to staff the clinics.
