Tell us a little bit about your company, its history and its service offerings.
Founded in 1953, CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen LLP) is one of the leading professional services firms in the United States. We are experienced in delivering integrated wealth advisory, outsourcing, audit, tax, and consulting services to help clients succeed professionally and personally.
What does your company do differently or better than your competitors?
Our family members work across our industries, services, and geographies to deliver a seamless experience to our clients. We live at the intersection of main street and wall street without silos. We create opportunities with a commitment to our people to create their inspired career and to our communities that make our success possible.
In what ways is your company giving back to the Baltimore community?
The CLA Foundation is a philanthropic extension of the CLA Promise that allows every member of the CLA family to know and help people in our communities. The CLA Foundation is funded solely by contributions from the CLA family — current employees, principals, and retired principals. Every dollar raised and granted comes from us.
The CLA Foundation provides meaningful grants to organizations that align with its mission: Creating career opportunities through education, employment, and entrepreneurship. A couple local grant recipients are Strong City Baltimore, Junior Achievement of Central Maryland, and the United Way. Since 2015, the CLA Foundation has raised and granted $6.1 million through 388 grants to organizations across the country. Most recently the CLA Baltimore office family members donated to Toys for Tots, Casey Cares Foundation, The Homecoming Project, school supplies and food collections for local charities. CLA is committed to support and serve our communities.
What is one thing you wish people knew about your company?
When you choose CLA, you deserve all of CLA and benefit from a solutions-oriented team, for an experience curated to meet your needs. It is through our promise to know you and help you on each step of your journey that CLA can provide the right service and capability at the right time. We call this the
seamless experience.
