Tax Talk - The 20/20 tax resolution blog

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.

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.

20/20 Tax Resolution has continued a partnership with Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit organization that seeks to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world.  Last month our employees volunteered in a rewarding day of assisting the HFHI crew in building a home in Boulder, Colorado.

We are extremely proud of our continued relationship with HFHI and look forward to our ongoing partnership opportunities.

20/20 Tax Resolution’s Assistant Associates spent a day at the Elitch Gardens theme park as way to say thanks for all their hard work.   We are proud of them and appreciate everything they do to ensure that we are successful in resolving our client’s tax liabilities.

Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit organization that seeks to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world. HFHI has built more than 250,000 houses around the globe, providing more than 1 million people in more than 3,000 communities with safe, decent, affordable shelter. We wanted to contribute to this noble cause so we have been partnering with HFHI for the past two years to build houses in Denver and its surrounding cities. Since the beginning of our partnership, over 60 employees have volunteered their time and, as always, it’s been a tremendously rewarding experience to see our hard work come to fruition to provide shelter for families in the area.

Working with HFHI has allowed us to be involved and active in the community while also providing our company and employees an opportunity to give back to those in need. We are extremely proud of our continued relationship with HFHI and look forward to upcoming opportunities to partner with the organization this Fall.

12/13/07 was the big day. We gathered the entire company together to unveil our new 20/20 campaign—our new logo, photography, collateral materials, and TV spot, which was to launch a few days later in Denver, Minneapolis and Seattle. Our employees arrived back at their desks to find 20/20-branded coffee mugs, T-shirts, mouse pads, the new collateral materials, and of course, beer! That’s when the real celebrating began. Since the launch of our campaign, we’ve been able to help more people and businesses than ever before.
