AAFCPAs Receives 2024 Golden Globes Award
Boston, MA (August 28, 2024) – AAFCPAs, a preeminent 350+ employee CPA and consulting firm specializing in tax, assurance, accounting, wealth management, business process and IT advisory solutions, is proud to announce recognition as Sustainability Champion by PrimeGlobal’s 2024 Golden Globes Awards. The award was presented at the PrimeGlobal MegaWeek in San Antonio, Texas on August 13, 2024.
“The judges were highly impressed with AAFCPAs’ Impact Report and how seamlessly the firm has integrated ESG into its mission,” explained Maureen Dillmore, Executive Director of PrimeGlobal Americas. “The firm’s 10 percent pledge also stood out as a remarkable commitment.”
A large part of AAFCPAs’ recognition for excellence in ESG may be credited to its leadership in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) along with its dedication to labor practices that prioritize team member well-being, career self-reliance, and an inclusive work culture. The firm’s diverse and equitable partner composition is key to its long-term success and strong organic growth. AAFCPAs measures and shares its social contributions and outcomes annually in its Impact Report. This helps the firm remain accountable, celebrates achievements, and fosters a meaningful organizational culture focused on social impact. It also serves as a testament to the firm’s shared values.
Equally notable is the firm’s 10% Back to Nonprofits Program, which celebrates the many nonprofits that enrich our lives by committing 10 percent of its net income annually to nonprofits. Beyond this, the firm’s leadership is mindful of its environmental responsibilities and continues to align efforts with AAFCPAs’ core values to contribute to a better future. This includes flexible work locations that decentralize operations and reduce not only the daily commute but also the need for large resource-intense headquarters. Where commercial real estate is essential, AAFCPAs selects space with sustainability in mind. For example, the firm’s Boston and Westborough offices are LEED certified, reflecting its commitment to environmental responsibility. This approach ensures that its physical footprint aligns with its broader sustainability goals while also supporting the well-being of its team members and the communities it serves.
PrimeGlobal’s 2024 Golden Globes Awards highlights organizations that go beyond conventional business practices to address global challenges, setting new benchmarks for excellence.
We’re honored to receive the Golden Globe award from PrimeGlobal as a Sustainability Champion,” explained Carla McCall, CPA, CGMA Managing Partner at AAFCPAs and Chair of the AICPA. “We recognize that there is no single formula for success. However, through more collaboration and transparency, we can all move forward together to create a better world. Our commitment at AAFCPAs is to continue expanding initiatives that positively impact ESG and transparently reporting on our progress to remain accountable.”
