Some of these people work with a tax program sponsored by Loyola Law School called the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program. VITA provides free tax assistance for the community. This is no small act given the complex nature of our tax system. What's even more amazing is the fact that these helpers are unpaid volunteers. They deserve commendation.
Generous acts are the lifeblood of our culture.
Too many times people shut out the thoughtful side of their lives because they are too involved or they believe that they can't make a difference. The people involved with VITA show that this is not the case at Loyola. They are trying to display that benevolence is not a sparse occurrence here. It is not often that busy people drop their daily activities to lend a hand to random people in need. So give thanks to VITA and the aids involved with the program.
