CPAs GIVE BACK

Join TXCPA for Accounting Opportunities Month

and Inspire Future CPAs!

 

This November, TXCPA is hosting Accounting Opportunities Month in conjunction with our annual Month of Service to raise awareness of accounting career opportunities. Your participation can create a meaningful difference! Consider volunteering for classroom visits or utilizing the hashtag #CPAMonth to share your unique career story, words of wisdom or message of gratitude on social media. 

 

Help extend our reach by sharing this opportunity with educators in your network! They can visit this link to request a classroom or virtual visit during the month of November. Together, we can inspire the next generation of CPAs! 

Learn more.  

TXCPA's Month of Service is coming in November!


During this dedicated month, TXCPA rallies the accounting profession to unite and create a positive impact in local Texas communities. This year, the timing aligns with Accounting Opportunities Month in November. While volunteering for classroom career visits is a valuable way to contribute, it's not the only option! We encourage members to give back in any way that’s meaningful – whether it’s collecting food donations for a local food bank, hosting a toy drive for underprivileged kids, volunteering at a local animal shelter or promoting financial literacy in your community. Watch for more details coming soon about how you can help share your community service on social media and help us measure the impact CPAs are making across the state.
