Let Virginia's nonprofits know they can count on you.

In honor of CPA Week this year, we've released newly updated nonprofit resource guides. CPAs have in-depth knowledge on the important financial issues nonprofits face. The guides, written by CPAs, were most recently updated by the Not-For-Profit Team at Newport News-based firm PBMares. Topics include budgeting, income tax issues, responsibilities and risks, and auditing. Find them all in our Nonprofit Resource Center and feel free to share them with clients and groups you know or work with. They are free and downloadable.

Recognize your CPAs.

What a GREAT time to tell your CPAs how awesome they are. Call out CPAs during staff meetings, buy your teams lunch, give them a small gift or gift card, or even just write them a note. Looking for celebratory ideas? Our Busy Season Ideas page is full of ways to feed your teams, have fun virtually, connect and much more. Put your recognition on social media, use #CountOnCPAs and tag us!

Take part in a service activity.

We all know #CPAsGiveBack, but it’s a great week to take part in a community service project or activity as a team-building activity. Don’t forget to let us know what you do and send pictures to [email protected]! You can use the #CPAsGiveBack and/or #CountOnCPAs hashtags.
