We’re Taking on the Purple Power CF Awareness Challenge With Heart & Purpose
At BryMar, we believe numbers tell a story—but so do colors. And this May, that color is purple. In honor of Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month, we’re trading spreadsheets for sparkles (well, metaphorically) and stepping into a vibrant, community-first campaign: the Purple Power CF Awareness Challenge. This isn’t just a dress-up opportunity—it’s a chance to stand beside one of our incredible clients, CFRI, and help raise awareness, funds, and hope for those impacted by cystic fibrosis.Â
We’re proud to be part of this movement, and even prouder to be doing it together.Â
Â
Why We’re Going PurpleÂ
At BryMar, our work doesn’t stop at debits and credits—it’s rooted in relationships. Our clients inspire us every day, and none more so than CFRI (Cystic Fibrosis Research Institute). For nearly 50 years, CFRI has been a driving force in the CF community—supporting families, advancing research, and advocating for access to quality care.Â
When they invited us to participate in their Purple Power Challenge, we didn’t hesitate. Why? Because we don’t just serve clients—we champion their missions. And CFRI’s mission is one we’re proud to stand behind.Â
Their legacy is built on perseverance, compassion, and hope—values that align deeply with our own. We’re here to amplify their message, bring visibility to their cause, and have a little fun while we’re at it.Â
Â
The BryMar Purple Power PlanÂ
Let’s be real—auditors are rarely accused of being flashy. But during May, our team is pulling out all the stops (and purple Sharpies) to show our support. We launched a four-week, team-wide challenge to bring color, creativity, and community spirit to our workflows—and we’ve never had more fun.Â
Here’s a look at our weekly purple-powered schedule:Â
Week 1:Â Purple Purpose SupportÂ
Each team member received a unique word—hope, strength, resilience, community—to symbolize our support. Wearing purple and holding their word with pride, our teammates created a mosaic of meaning, soon to be revealed in a heartfelt BryMar tribute collage.Â
Week 2:Â Purple Pets ParadeÂ
Let’s just say the cuteness level was off the charts. From real pups in purple bandanas to doodled mascots and plushies rocking tiny tutus, our pet parade turned into a full-blown BryMar mascot moment.Â
Week 3:Â Wear It Purple Wednesday + Filters GaloreÂ
We got bold—purple nails, purple lipstick, purple socks (with accounting puns, of course). Plus, a few brave souls experimented with purple hair filters. We’ll let you decide who wore it best.Â
Week 4:Â Purple Desk TakeoverÂ
Purple post-its, purple mugs, even purple pens—our workspaces will become vibrant declarations of awareness and support. It’s amazing how something as simple as color can spark meaningful conversations.Â

Â
Why It MattersÂ
Yes, it’s fun. Yes, it’s colorful. But the heart of the Purple Power CF Awareness Challenge is deeply personal.Â
It’s about lifting up the stories that don’t always get told. It’s about helping families affected by cystic fibrosis feel seen, supported, and surrounded by allies. It’s about standing with CFRI as they fund groundbreaking research, provide educational resources, and support wellness programs for those who need it most.Â
And here’s the amazing part: every purple post, every $1 donated (matched dollar for dollar!), and every voice raised helps push this mission forward. It’s a ripple effect of awareness, hope, and action—and we’re honored to be part of it.Â
Â

Â
Audits, Awareness & AdvocacyÂ
At BryMar, we’re more than auditors—we’re partners in purpose. Whether we’re helping clients tell their financial story or joining them in their fight for a better world, we believe in showing up, speaking out, and making it meaningful.Â
We’re proud to support the incredible work our clients do—and honored to help amplify the voices of organizations like CFRI.Â
Let’s make this May unforgettable. Let’s go purple for a purpose. 💜Â
