In the Spirit of Giving

This past December 2003, the Mid-Hudson Chapter’s Young CPAs Committee put on a fabulous Toys for Tots fundraiser and networking event. As president of the chapter, Deborah Bailey-Browne expressed how proud she was of the event and of all of the committee’s initiatives.

“This year, we have a very active committee. It has really been nice to see the various range of activities that they have coordinated and the overall collaboration among the group. As the first Young CPAs Committee chair for the Mid-Hudson Chapter, these efforts are very dear to my heart.”
