Founded in 1938 with a mission to enable women in accounting and related fields to achieve their full personal, professional, and economic potential, the Accounting & Financial Women's Alliance has been a transformative force in the accounting profession for over eight decades. The Richmond, VA chapter, chartered in 1949 with just 11 charter members, exemplifies this legacy of empowerment and professional growth. Today, the Richmond Chapter continues this tradition by bringing together women across all levels of the accounting and finance professions in a supportive community dedicated to mutual learning and development. Members benefit from the collective experience and wisdom of their peers, building lasting professional relationships that extend beyond individual career advancement. The chapter's emphasis on giving back to the community reflects a broader commitment to strengthening the profession and creating opportunities for the next generation of women in accounting and finance. Whether you're an established financial officer, a CPA partner, a student beginning your career, or a professional returning to the workforce, the Richmond Chapter provides a welcoming community where women support one another in achieving their professional aspirations and contributing meaningfully to their field.
