CPA Industry Day at Cradles to Crayons

MassCPAs is excited to announce its partnership with Cradles to Crayons (C2C), a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving children in need across the Commonwealth. As part of this partnership, C2C will be hosting a special CPA Industry Day exclusively for MassCPAs members on Friday, July 10. During this event, members will have the opportunity to volunteer between 12:00-2:00 p.m., contributing to C2C's impactful mission, followed by a happy hour and networking event. Stay tuned for more details!

How Does MassCPAs' Day of Service Work?

Volunteers must follow these steps to participate:

1. Select a cause — Choose an organization to work with
2. Contact your charity — Contact your chosen organization immediately to find out about opportunities available on the selected date (some charities have limited space and opportunities)
3. Sign up — After you have chosen and contacted an organization, volunteers will fill out a sign-up form and officially sign up for the CPA Day of Service. The deadline to sign up is Friday, July 3
4. Participate — Show your pride and the generosity of the CPA profession by serving your community!
5. Follow-up — After your Day of Service is complete, send pictures and feedback to hnaranjo@masscpas.org. They will be posted on our social media, website, in SumNews and used in media outreach to show what a difference Massachusetts CPAs can make
