Join us for our Month of Service!

Every October South Carolina CPAs come together to promote and support a charity of their choice.

What’s Month of Service all about?

CPA Month of Service is your opportunity to showcase the impact you and your profession can make on South Carolina. Our Chapters are organizing incredible service projects that make it easy and safe to get involved.

Our focus this year is donating to local food banks and pantries. While that need is always present, the pandemic has made the situation even more urgent.

As our great state navigates the road to recovery, many retail, tourism and hospitality workers might not have jobs to return to for a long while; and the children who depend on school breakfasts and lunches no longer have the same access to those resources while they attend school virtually.

Let’s join together as a generous community of leaders who support our state.

Third Annual Community Connected Engagement Award

Community involvement is critical to making South Carolina better for individuals and businesses. SCACPA is a strong and vibrant community thanks to everyone’s hard work. That’s why in 2018 we launched our Community Connected Engagement Award. 

Congratulations to our previous winners for making South Carolina a better place to live and work. Read more about their awesome involvement:

Want to get involved with Month of Service?

Keeping safety and needs in mind, your local Chapters are partnering with food banks across the state to provide support and supplies to those most in need.

Details are rolling in about how your local food banks can either accept monetary contributions or if they accept donations of non-perishable items. Watch for weekly email updates from your Chapter leaders.

If your organization already has something planned for the month of service, email communications@scacpa.org and tell us all about it so we can promote it on our social media. Don’t forget to share your pics and experiences on SCACPA’s social channels and use the hashtags #CPAsCare and #FeedSC.

NEW OPPORTUNITY: Are you willing to provide limited pro bono services between now and a Nov. 1 deadline? You can assist the SC Small Business Development Centers as they help small businesses and nonprofits compile the needed documentation and complete applications for the Minority and Small Business Relief Grant Program.
