About Us

Brought to you by The Ohio Society of Certified Public Accountants and The Ohio CPA Foundation, Financial Fitness Ohio is a campaign led by CPAs from across the state to educate Ohioans on how to make better informed decisions about their personal finances.

Ohioans today face a growing list of personal financial challenges. The average family spends $1.22 for every dollar it earns. Bankruptcy and credit card debt are at all time highs. Many consumers are not saving enough money to retire and have no reserve funds to help them through a difficult financial or medical emergency.

Simply put, Ohioans are not adequately prepared to meet current and future financial needs.

CPA volunteers from among the Society’s nearly 23,000 members are at the heart of the Financial Fitness Ohio initiative. Through Financial Fitness Ohio, CPAs will apply their financial skills and business knowledge to help Ohioans become financially fit.

Too many Ohioans lack a basic understanding of how to attain financial fitness. This lack of financial fitness relates directly to the economic strength of our society. Financial Fitness Ohio aims to change this trend and improve the financial futures of all Ohioans.

The Ohio Society of Certified Public Accountants (OSCPA) is a professional association dedicated to the advancement of the accounting profession in Ohio. The Ohio Society provides its nearly 23,000 members with opportunities to exchange ideas and experience, expand their accounting knowledge and channel their efforts toward maintaining the profession as a viable and respected force in business and society.

The Ohio CPA Foundation is the philanthropic organization of The Ohio Society of CPAs. The Foundation supports accounting and financial literacy education and programs to interest students in selecting accounting as their major to become future CPAs.
