About the Campaign

Connecting families to tax credits, public benefits, and ways to keep and grow their household incomes.

Millions to Families

Over the past five years, Philadelphia's Campaign for Working Families has brought nearly $86 million directly into the homes of low-income working families.  And saved these families an additional estimated $14 million in interest, fees, charges for tax preparation and check cashing, and loans.

What We Do

The Campaign boosts the number of people who receive FREE tax filing assistance and do not have to pay sky-high fees to commercial tax preparers. The Campaign is part of a national movement to promote EITC, to provide free or low cost tax services, and to protect taxpayers from rip-offs, including Holiday, Pay Stub and Refund Anticipation Loans (RALs), sometime called “Instant Money” or “Rapid” Loans.

Partnership

The Campaign is a partnership that promotes free filing of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), PA TAX BACK, and connects Philadelphia residents to other tax credits, public benefits, and ways to keep and grow their household incomes.
