20/20 Tax Resolution wants to share some of our pictures with you. So we’ve developed our Flickr page where you’ll find pictures of some of our charity community work, involvement with the IRS and practitioner community organizations, and numerous other 20/20 Tax Resolution activities.
We hope to “see” you at the 20/20 Tax Resolution Flickr page.

It’s well known that on January 12th a series of earthquakes measuring 6.5 to 7.3 on the Richter scale devastated the nation of Haiti. 20/20 immediately looked to our employees and the American Red Cross as a way to support the emergency relief and recovery efforts by providing financial support.
20/20 initiated a Haiti Red Ribbon Week campaign to raise donations for the victims of the earthquake. We are proud of the way in which 20/20 was able to quickly mobilize and do our part to make a difference. 20/20 is committed to assisting those in need in our communities locally and around the world.
For more information about how you can participate in the American Red Cross relief efforts please contact the Red Cross directly via this link.

We at 20/20 just wrapped up our most successful Annual Holiday Food Drive to date. Our goal was to collect donations for families in need in our own community and distribute our contributions through The Community Food Share organization.
Last year was a tremendous success, bringing in 550 pounds of food and cash donations gifted to Community Food Share from all of our employees. But we knew we could do more. This year we gathered almost 590 pounds of food and increased our cash contributions over 350% from last year. This adds up to a helpful 2,870 meals for our community.
According to Community Food Share, the majority of folks who receive food assistance are working families with children. We’re proud to be making a difference in our community in these uncertain and difficult economic times.

Over the years 20/20 Tax Resolution has shown a strong commitment to giving back to the communities in which we live and work. We’ve worked with Habitat For Humanity, Community Food Share, BalSwan, and various other national and local organizations. We’re always looking forward to the opportunities to partner with charities and donate our time and resources to those in need.
Our most recent initiative was focused on the Make a Child Smile Organization which was started in 1998 to encourage others to write letters to children suffering from a chronic or life-threatening illness. Each month new children are featured on their website to be the recipients of the emotional and financial support of people all over the world.
20/20 took the opportunity to raise money, provide gifts, and write letters to brighten the lives of the children and their families. Since then, we’ve received touching letters from the families of the children and can feel the true impact of our service.
We encourage you to learn more about Make a Child Smile as well as the other organizations that we have worked with in hopes to get as many involved as possible. If you have any suggestions for us for our next charity event we’d love to hear from you.
