During the friendly two-week competition, accounting professionals compete to raise funds for nine food banks across the state. All funds raised by each team stay local and benefit the food bank that serves its community. As the Georgia Accounting Food Fight concludes its 12th year, Boyd Search, CEO of The Georgia Society of CPAs, celebrated the campaign's record-breaking impact: "This year was our most successful yet, with CPAs across Georgia raising more than $380,000 to fight hunger. Together, we've now contributed nearly $2.9 million since launching this initiative—a remarkable reflection of the generosity and commitment of our profession. When we come together with a shared purpose, there's no limit to what we can achieve for our communities." Right now, 1 in 7 Georgians is experiencing food insecurity, meaning they may not know when their next meal will be. Fundraisers like the Georgia Accounting Food Fight are more crucial than ever. The fundraising efforts will directly support Feeding Georgia's mission to provide nutritious meals to those in need and create a hunger-free Georgia. Since its inception in 2014, the Georgia Accounting Food Fight has collectively raised $2,926,634.60 the equivalent of 11,706,538 meals for the state's food banks.
