Background

Established in 1938, the Michigan Government Finance Officers Association (MGFOA) is a professional association of public officials and finance professionals, striving to promote excellence in government finance. Public Sector members are practitioners in all areas of finance in state and local government. Associate members are CPA's, bankers, brokers, consultants, lawyers, educators and others concerned with local government finance and committed to promoting the objectives of MGFOA. MGFOA averages over six hundred members representing nearly five hundred communities.

We are proud to be affiliated with the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA).

MGFOA is staffed primarily by volunteers and does much of its work by committee. All members are invited to serve on a committee or on the Board of Directors.
