April 24, 2023 - The Accounting Cornerstone Foundation is proud to announce the launch of their scholarship application, providing aspiring accountants and bookkeepers with the opportunity to attend their first-ever conference and experience a life-changing event in the accounting and bookkeeping community. This non-profit organization is dedicated to supporting individuals with in-person education to promote personal growth and opportunity in the industry. By empowering accounting and bookkeeping professionals to achieve their dreams and reach their full potential, the foundation strives to create a brighter future for everyone involved.
As the world of accounting and bookkeeping evolves, it becomes increasingly important for professionals to stay current with industry trends and develop their skills. The Accounting Cornerstone Foundation recognizes this need and seeks to offer a helping hand to those who have not yet had the chance to attend an in-person conference. With the scholarship application now open, eligible professionals can apply for a chance to receive a ticket to an industry conference, airfare, and hotel accommodations, all covered by the foundation.
Dawn Brolin, President of the Accounting Cornerstone Foundation, passionately advocates for the importance of these in-person learning experiences. "There is nothing else like these in-person learning opportunities, like conferences. The creation of lifelong personal bonds is amazing," said Brolin. "Our hope is that this scholarship will provide recipients with a life-changing experience that will inspire them to continue pursuing their dreams and making a positive impact in the accounting and bookkeeping community."
The application process is designed to be straightforward and easy to navigate, with detailed instructions provided on the Accounting Cornerstone Foundation's website. The scholarship is open to anyone in the accounting and bookkeeping industry who has not been able to attend an in-person conference. It offers an incredible opportunity to learn from industry experts, network with peers, and gain valuable insights into the world of accounting and bookkeeping.
The Accounting Cornerstone Foundation is currently collecting applications for the 2023 conference season. In addition to accepting applications, the foundation also welcomes donations to support its mission. These donations will be used to assist scholarship recipients, ensuring that deserving individuals can experience the benefits of attending an industry conference.
Founded in 2023, following a "what if" sticky note at an industry leader retreat called "Appy Camp" in September 2022, the Accounting Cornerstone Foundation was established as a recognized non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. With a single goal in mind, the foundation aims to share the opportunity to attend continuing education conferences and support the growth of accounting and bookkeeping professionals around the globe. Scholarship recipients will be provided with a conference ticket, airfare, and hotel accommodations for their chosen conference.
