About Our CEO

Ruth Lavigne

Ruth Lavigne bio picture

Ruth believes we are called to give back to others who need help to either save lives or want help saving their own lives. By serving others in need and unconditionally loving them for where they are in their growth journey, we serve as stewards for others. We cannot truly love when we operate from judgement; by operating with compassion, grace and patience, we will continue to make the world a better place.

Ruth started Accounting Pros in 1997 as an at home business in MN before moving to CO. Over the years, AP has given back to the community in many ways by supporting the following Non-Profits:

  • Care and Share - Soup kitchen volunteering, stocking food shelves
  • Springs Rescue Mission - Serving the homeless by assisting with food procurement, interviews, clothes and showers
  • DumYon Martial Arts - Donating time and money to the cause; this non-profit helps disabled/blind individuals, women and children learn to better defend themselves and grow their self confidence. DumYon has taken a number of people to the special Olympics!
  • Shield 616 - Supporting our first responders, police, firefighters and paramedics to be equipped with the right safety equipment for the community.
  • Fresh Starts - Provides money and time to bring the recovering community together by bringing AA, NA, CA, ACA and Al-Anon meetings into a facility to work with getting them into the 12 step program.
