I have come to know and love my neighborhood and value its healthy mix of small businesses. Greater Ashmont Main Streets ensures businesses in the area maintain their success and vitality by connecting residents, business owners and services to each other. Being a CPA, I know how daunting the financial element of ensuring success can be. I aid Greater Ashmont MS with tax filings, financial statement review, and similar tasks to ensure the continuing success of this organization. My contribution is a gratifying way to show support for an organization that does wonderful things for our community.
