I'm absolutely thrilled that a man such as him exists in our community. What Ron Martin exemplifies is a true philanthropist's heart.
Low-income families who file at the VITA site may qualify for a substantial Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
The EITC is a credit based on earned income. To qualify, the individual must be working and must be a citizen. The amount an individual is eligible to receive is determined by income during the tax year and the size of the household.
What he has done is created a permanent source of funding for these agencies. The organizations he has named in the fund can count on receiving an annual check from now until forever.
This is not a one-time thing for Martin. It is a pattern of caring and kindness.
