LEAP: Lead and Enhance the Accounting Profession
2007-2008
Contributor Campaign
The good news: Accounting enrollment is at an all-time high!
The not so good news: With the number of Baby Boomers nearing retirement,
an inordinate number of new CPAs is needed in the coming years to
sustain our great profession.
Now more than
ever, the LEAP career initiative is needed to help young people
understand the rewards of working in the CPA
profession.
Over the past few years,
MSCPA members have generously contributed more than $300,000 to help
deserving students pursue a rewarding future in the CPA
profession. (One hundred percent of money
donated goes directly toward
scholarships.)
Your generosity not only ensures the future of our
profession, but it also helps your firm or company receive the best
and brightest job candidates.
This year, firms and companies who contribute to the LEAP
scholarship fund will receive greater access to students for future
recruiting prospects than ever before. I urge you to consider
supporting the scholarship effort at whatever level you can.
You can donate quickly online with a credit card by
clicking here. The future
sustainability of our profession rides on what we do
today!
I look
forward to working with each of you as we continue to build
awareness, replenish the looming workforce shortage and helpMissouri
firms/companies recruit and retain CPA top
talent.
