Foundation Communities is a nationally-recognized nonprofit organization that empowers low- and moderate-income families to succeed through quality affordable housing and tools to increase their educational and economic standing. Our successful business model means that 80 percent of our $16 million budget is earned through rent and management and development fees, then reinvested into services that make a measurable impact. Community Tax Centers, a program of Foundation Communities, provides free income tax preparation services to Austin’s low-income families and individuals.
By helping people claim all of the tax credits for which they are eligible, volunteers can give many of the working poor in our community a chance to build a successful financial future.
