Avolon Accounting & CFO Services

Avolon Accounting & CFO Services handles finance and back-office work for organisations that lack a full in-house team. Candy Yu started the firm in San Francisco in 2005, and it now runs from Atlanta, Georgia. Much of its work is with charter schools, non-profits and other bodies that answer to government oversight.
