Each year, the ASWA Educational Foundation (The Foundation) recognizes the "best in market" companies whose commitment to work/life balance and individuals whose influence on others in the profession have placed them in the enviable position of earning the prestigious Foundation Award. This national recognition, which is conferred by a blue ribbon panel of judges, reflects a clear prioritization of both the value and the values that winning companies place on their chief asset...their people.

Our Balance Awards recognize local, regional and national companies that demonstrate sensitivity to women, provide leadership and mentoring opportunities, show concern for financial issues in their communities and that facilitate work-life balance.

We also recognize individual women for their contributions to the profession. We will select regional winners in this category and the six regional winners will be nominated for the national Influential Woman of the Year Award.

This year, we are also recognizing an individual or group that has supported their community by teaching a Financial Literacy program through our new Financial Literacy Award.

The Foundation Awards are sponsored by Accountemps & Robert Half Finance and Accounting.
