Team Water 6 finished building an info kiosk for a City of Prescott, Arizona recreation facility. They've spent their time with the city assisting with a variety of tasks, from trail restoration, to erosion control, and more!

Team Fire 5 had some special visitors today! Colorado Governor Jared Polis, colleagues from the Governor's office, and staff from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment came out to meet the team and thank them for their service at United Way of Pueblo County.

To date, Fire 5 has returned over $2.7 million to low- and middle-income community members through no-cost tax filing services! Over the Southwest Region's history, our teams have returned over $50 million to residents of the state through tax prep projects. 🙌

Team Fire 6 is renovating cabins at Clinton State Park - Kansas Wildlife & Parks. This week, they're painting the exterior, replacing decking, and removing invasive honeysuckle.
