Members of the Caras & Shulman team donated their time to the 2019 MSCPA Day of Service. Giving back to our local communities is important to us, and it also provides the opportunity to spend some quality time with colleagues outside the office. This year, the effort was to beautify the grounds of the Town Common in Burlington, MA. It turned out to be a beautiful day! Thank you to those who were able to participate in such a great event. From left to right - Julia Basile, Jaclyn Edwards, Haley Fritz, Melissa Astone, Nadia Antonellis, and Sharon Aftandilian.
