Doing Our Part
Anyone who works in Portland, like we do, knows it's a small, tight-knit community. Forget seven degrees - most Portlanders are separated by one or two. And we wouldn't have it any other way. We're proud of the Portland community and the camaraderie, collaboration and support the Northwest offers. As the area's largest local accounting firm, we feel a duty not only to give back to the community, but also to help foster its growth. You've probably seen us out and about:
| - Working with local organizations to attract businesses to the area | |
| - Supporting our state universities with board involvement and scholarship funds | |
| - Working with the OSCPA to promote financial literacy and the accounting profession | |
| - As members of professional and industry organizations | |
| - Serving as board members and committee members for nonprofit organizations | |
| - Sponsoring professional and nonprofit organizations |
Maybe that’s why fellow businesses honored us as one of Oregon’s Most Admired Companies in the professional services category in 2009 and 2007. Hosted by the Portland Business Journal, this award is determined by more than 2,000 CEOs across Oregon. This recognition reinforces not only our mission, but also our firm culture and our dedication to our clients and community. |
