The Massachusetts Society of Certified Public Accountants (MassCPAs) has awarded $182,500 in scholarships to 50 outstanding students across the state. These scholarships, presented through the MassCPAs Educational Foundation Scholarship Program, recognize exceptional academic performance and commitment to the accounting profession.
The scholarship recipients were honored at MassCPAs’ annual networking event, Connect 2026, on May 13. This event provides a valuable opportunity for these rising stars to connect and network with established professionals within the Massachusetts accounting community.
“It’s truly inspiring to see the talent and drive of this year’s scholarship winners,” said Zach Donah, CAE, president and CEO of MassCPAs. “Their commitment to excellence gives us great confidence that the accounting profession in Massachusetts will continue to thrive under their leadership. We are honored to play a role in their success and extend our deepest gratitude to the donors and volunteers who make this investment in our future possible.”
Scholarships are funded 100% through donations to the MassCPAs Educational Foundation. The mission of the Foundation is to inspire and support the next generation of CPAs in Massachusetts. Since the program’s inception in 2006, the Foundation has awarded 500 scholarships to aspiring CPAs, ranging from $1,000-$10,000 and totaling more than $2,250,000. MassCPAs scholarships are available for both undergraduate and graduate accounting students who are attending a college or university in Massachusetts or attending a college or university out-of-state with a permanent residence in Massachusetts. Scholarship funds are issued directly to the students and can be used for tuition, books, interviewing expenses or other needs. For more information about the Foundation, click here.
“Empowering students through these scholarships is at the heart of our mission to build a robust and resilient accounting workforce,” said Allie Orlando, director of academic and career development at MassCPAs. “We are thrilled to celebrate this year’s recipients and look forward to seeing the significant contributions they will make to the profession.”
