NACOGDOCHES COUNTY, TX (KTRE) -

SFA honor students are finding a different way to give back to the community by doing your taxes for free!

This weekend kicked off the first of many weekends for free tax help at the Nacogdoches Public Library.  All of the students doing the returns are accounting, finance or information systems majors at SFA. Their services consist of low-income returns, with the cap being 50 thousand dollars.

"It felt good to be able to reach back and help out because a lot of people can't afford to pay an accountant who charges a lot of money to be able to do it, so it feels good that we're helping people and giving back money to the community," said Jay Camp, Vice President, VITA.

So far the group has done 20 returns in the first weekend of the program. They will continue to offer their services every weekend in February, the last weekend in March and the first weekend of April.
