	Save - Earn - Learn; Indy's Campaign For Financial Fitness The Save-Earn-Learn program was created as a way for the low-income residents of Marion County to not only "Save" their money by providing free tax preparation, but individuals "Earn" 100% of their refund. During their tax preparation, individuals have the opportunity to "Learn" about asset building. The Save-Earn-Learn program was designed and implemented as a way to encourage people to save money, build assets, and educate in an effort to avoid high interest refund anticipation loans. Sign Up ReadUP Tutoring Program ReadUP is a tutoring program that matches volunteer tutors from the community with IPS 4th and 5th Graders that have been identified as reading below grade level. Why 4th and 5th grade? Research shows that if kids aren’t reading at grade level by then, they are less likely to graduate. You can help get them back on track, which can be an uplifting experience for all of us, beginning with you. Sign Up
