Golden Anniversary Endowment Campaign

In 2007, the Educational Foundation of the Georgia Society of CPAs will be celebrating its 50th anniversary; to commemorate this milestone, the Foundation is launching an endowment campaign to secure sufficient scholarship funds to financially assist today’s students and the future of the accounting profession. In support of the Foundation reaching its goal, the Georgia Society of CPAs will match dollar for dollar, up to $500,000, all financial commitments made to the endowment campaign by individuals and businesses through December 31, 2007.

Annual Giving Campaign

The Educational Foundation has kicked off the Annual Giving Campaign.  The accounting profession is one of integrity and character. It is important that we encourage and support young people to pursue accounting as their career path and carry on the tradition of serving the public interest.

This year's Annual Campaign is your chance to make a difference.  Through this effort, the Educational Foundation will be able to increase its financial support to help students finish their education.  All funds raised through the campaign will be used for scholarships.
