A Story of Hope and Support
Maricela Treviño's Testimonial
Learn about Maricela Treviño’s experience and how the VITA program supported her during one of the most important moments of her life.
Several years ago, Maricela Treviño sought financial guidance while undergoing cancer treatment. During that difficult time, she needed assistance obtaining an ITIN and was referred by the Consulate General of Mexico in Laredo to the VITA program.
There, she received support in preparing her first tax return. Later, she returned with a story of resilience: she had completed her cancer treatment and had obtained her Social Security number.
Her experience demonstrates how access to free financial guidance and support services can make a meaningful difference, providing individuals and families with the tools they need to move forward.
