Community & Impact
Small businesses are the heart of San Antonio.
We work like it.
Community isn't our marketing. It's our mission — and it has been since 2013.
Stewardship, not sponsorship.
We believe financial work is stewardship — the responsible care of a person's livelihood, business, and long-term stability. And stewardship doesn't stop at the office door. The same care we bring to our clients' books, we bring to the community that built us.
That's why you'll find us at the chamber, in the classroom, on the panel, and behind the scholarship — amplifying the voices of small business owners and making sure the next generation of entrepreneurs gets a fair start.
Where we show up
Education
Financial knowledge for all
Workshops, mentorship, and speaking — from San Antonio Startup Week stages to one-on-one guidance for owners who were never taught how financial leadership works.
Scholarships
Investing in what's next
Scholarships for future community leaders and entrepreneurs — because believing in San Antonio's small business future means funding it.
A voice for small business
Clean, current books and monthly reports you actually understand. Structure creates calm — and visibility into how your business is really doing.
Advocacy
The people behind the hashtag
Meet Robert & Lily.
Lily Garcia — Marketing Director
A proud UTSA alum with a degree in International Business and a passion for lifting others, Lily is the builder behind the brand — and a force in San Antonio's entrepreneurial community in her own right.
She works alongside Robert to support the micro and small business community through education, resource awareness, and mentorship — and she truly believes small businesses are the heart of San Antonio.

Robert Garcia, CPA — #CPAguy
Robert didn't stumble into accounting — he mastered it, from KPMG to the financial heartbeat of major corporations. But what he learned there is what most people miss: behind every spreadsheet is a story, and behind every story is a person who deserves an advocate, not a transaction.
In 2013 he founded Robert Garcia CPA, PLLC on a simple idea: amplify the voices of small business owners, protect their dreams, and help them grow with clarity, confidence, and community. That idea became a brand. The brand became a movement. The movement became #IHaveACPAGuy.
