"We believe financial education should not be a privilege. Myerrs Impact Foundation exists to train, support, and uplift aspiring accountants and financial professionals who have the potential — but not yet the resources."
In the Philippines, thousands of students have the aptitude and drive to build careers in accounting and finance — but face one barrier: access. Tuition fees, training costs, and the gap between education and real employment stop talent before it can flourish.
Myerrs Impact Foundation was built to close that gap. Founded by Elena Sosa — valedictorian, 10-year accounting professional, and CFO — the Foundation puts real resources behind aspiring accountants who are ready to grow but need the opportunity to do it.
This is not charity. This is investment in the future of Philippine financial talent — and in the communities that talent will serve.
"The businesses we build should lift the communities we come from. Every invoice, every client, every month — contributing to something bigger than the balance sheet."
— Elena Sosa, Founder · MyerrsCFO Inc. & Myerrs Impact FoundationAfter a decade working in accounting — including as a Senior Bookkeeper inside a professional firm — Elena understood three structural problems that the Foundation was built to fix.
Brilliant students across the Philippines want to study accountancy — but tuition, review fees, and cost of living make it impossible without support. The talent is there. The access isn't.
Traditional accounting education teaches theory. It doesn't teach QuickBooks Online, Link My Books, eCommerce COGS, or real-world bookkeeping systems. Graduates enter the workforce underprepared for what firms actually need.
Even graduates who complete their studies often can't find their first role. There's no bridge between the classroom and employment. The Foundation builds that bridge — and walks scholars across it.
Each program is designed to meet scholars where they are — and take them further than they could go alone.
The Myerrs Scholars Program provides direct financial assistance to qualified students pursuing accountancy, bookkeeping, or financial management education in the Philippines. This isn't a loan. It's a scholarship — funded by MyerrsCFO's operating revenue, not donations.
Every scholar is paired with a mentor from the MyerrsCFO team — including Elena herself — who provides guidance throughout their studies and into their early career.
The Myerrs Training Academy delivers free, practical bookkeeping and accounting training to students, aspiring virtual assistants, and career shifters who want to build a real skill set — not just a certificate.
Training is built on the same SOP systems MyerrsCFO uses with actual US, UK, and Canadian clients. Participants learn what the market actually needs, not just what the syllabus covers.
The Work-to-Learn Program is the final step in the Foundation's ecosystem. Top-performing graduates from the Myerrs Training Academy and Scholars Program are offered internship and employment pathways within MyerrsCFO Inc. itself.
This is where the Foundation and the firm connect — creating a self-sustaining cycle where investment in education flows directly into trained, committed, long-term team members who already know the system, the culture, and the standard.
MyerrsCFO earns. The Foundation trains. The best talent joins the team. The team earns more. The Foundation grows. This is intentional — CFO-level design applied to social impact.
5% of every dollar earned by MyerrsCFO Inc. flows automatically to the Foundation — every month, every engagement.
Scholars receive financial support. The Training Academy delivers real skills. Students who couldn't access opportunity now can.
High performers join the Work-to-Learn Program — gaining real client experience inside a firm that already trained them on the right systems.
New team members serve more clients. The firm grows. More revenue funds more scholars. The next generation begins.
"We don't just want to help students study. We want to give them the system, the mentorship, and the door — so they can walk through it on their own."
We track what we commit. As a Foundation run by a CFO, we believe impact must be measured — not just stated. These metrics are updated regularly and published openly.
Two ways to be part of the Myerrs Impact Foundation — as a scholar who benefits from it, or as a partner who helps grow it.

If your business shares our belief that education should be accessible and talent should be invested in — partner with the Myerrs Impact Foundation. Sponsoring a scholar is not a donation. It's a business partnership with real impact and real visibility.
We do not accept anonymous donations. All partnerships are structured, acknowledged, and reported on.
Yes — completely free to scholars. There is no tuition charged, no loan, and no obligation beyond your commitment to the program. The Foundation is funded by 5% of MyerrsCFO Inc.'s revenue, not by scholar fees.
No. The Myerrs Training Academy is open to students and non-students alike — including career shifters and aspiring virtual assistants who want to learn bookkeeping from scratch. The Scholars Program is for those pursuing formal accountancy education.
Yes. All participants in the Work-to-Learn Program are fairly compensated from day one. This is not an unpaid internship. We believe in paying people for real work — that's the standard we hold ourselves to at MyerrsCFO, and it extends to the Foundation.
Currently, the Foundation programs are focused on students and aspiring professionals in the Philippines. As the Foundation grows, we may expand — but our roots and our first commitment are to the community we come from.
The Foundation is funded by 5% of MyerrsCFO Inc.'s monthly operating revenue — automatically, on every engagement. It is not reliant on donations or grants. As the business grows, the Foundation grows. That's the design.
We publish impact reporting — scholars supported, training hours delivered, employment placements made. As a CFO-founded organization, accountability and transparency are non-negotiable. Partners receive direct reporting on what their contribution achieved.
