41 CPAs receive AICPA's 'Sustained Contribution Award' for long-term leadership and service

At the current Fall Council meeting in Maui, Hawaii, the AICPA announced that 41 CPAs have received its Sustained Contribution Award. The Contribution award looks to recognize Institute members who have significantly contributed to the AICPA and the CPA profession through their volunteer service.

All of the recipients have served on an Institute volunteer group for 20 or more years and have served at least once as a chair of an AICPA committee, task force or resource panel.

“The AICPA congratulates all of the recipients of this year’s Sustained Contribution Award,” said Kathy Johnson, member of the AICPA’s award committee, per a statement. “The work they’ve done in volunteer leadership roles at the AICPA has strengthened the profession.”
