Fellowship Place partners with Yale University and the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program

Fellowship Place was very fortunate again this year to partner with Yale University and the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (VITA). Nine student volunteers, led by Tylar Bloch and Bessie Bauman, conducted free income tax preparation services on campus on Friday, Feb. 14 and Saturday, Feb. 15. A majority of individuals working with Fellowship’s Employment program are new to filing taxes and may not have the financial resources to pay a for-profit tax preparer. The volunteers provide a valuable service that helps our clients understand and fulfill their tax filing responsibilities and get their tax refunds in a timely manner. Special thanks to Tylar, Bessie, and their awesome team!

Employer Matching Gift Programs

Many employers offer Matching Gift programs that will match charitable contributions made by their employees, board members, and spouses.

This is a great way to maximize the impact of your donation. Connect with your employer’s HR dept. to find out if they offer such a program. If your employer uses a matching gift form, complete the form and send it along with your donation check to the following address:

Fellowship Place Inc.
441 Elm St
New Haven, CT 06511

If your employer uses a third-party online platform for matching gifts, kindly reach out to Melissa Holroyd, Director of Development, via email at mholroyd@fellowshipplace.org for assistance ensuring your donation is directed to Fellowship Place as per your preferences.
