Last Chance and Reminders for Taxes and Turf

A couple of reminders to help you out in your busy lives.

We all do it. Forget to mark our calendars for upcoming Little League sign-ups, prom tickets or local business expos. There are so many events and opportunities in Cupertino that it can be hard to keep tabs on them all.

Here are a couple reminders. Take a look before it's your last chance!

LEARN TURBOTAX AND QUICKEN

Tax deadline day, April 15, is not that far off. If you’re interested in learning TurboTax and Quicken to prepare your tax return, there’s a free workshop at on Wednesday, March 28, 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

It’s sponsored by California South Bay University, School of Business, and covers tax preparation for both small businesses and individuals. Plan on arriving with your all your tax documents.

COMPOST

The city is offering free compost to residents again. On Fridays and Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. (weather permitting) residents can pick up compost at the Stevens Creek Quarry site on Stevens Creek Road (across from the dam.) Visit the city’s website www.cupertino.org for more details.

It's difficult to know what's going on in a kid's mind unless they feel confident enough to open upRead More and talk. And this program helps us adults to learn to listen differently.

I too was at this Challenge Day. It was my 6th. I first volunteered because I watched the programRead More on MTV "If You Really Knew Me" when my son was being severely bullied in middle school and saw the program was offered when he was a freshman in high school. My company strongly supports me volunteering for this and allows me to take the day off work to attend. I am continually humbled by what these teens share and saddened at what some of them have experienced in their short lives. This program is so valuable. I think every school should offer it and every parent should attend. It helps us to realize that we need to think twice before we judge or assume things about others when we know nothing about them. It is the volunteering opportunity that I look forward to participating in every year.

A big "Thank You" to Anne, Pete, and 53 other professionals who opened up their companiesRead More and organizations to give our students hands-on experience of what life might look like for them post-high school. Job Shadowing brings relevance to education!
