Advance Financial was recently named the winner of two Stevie Awards in the 16th annual American Business Awards. The Nashville-based financial services company won a silver award for Fastest Growing Company of the Year and a bronze award for Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year for organizations up to 2,500 employees.

The Fastest Growing Company of the Year category recognizes outstanding revenue growth since the beginning of 2017 over 2016, and the Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year category recognizes organizations’ contributions to society.

“We constantly strive to have a strong presence in the communities we serve, while also focusing on our growth and ability to reach more people,” said Tina Hodges, chief experience officer of Advance Financial. “It’s something we take great pride in, so to be recognized for this means a lot.”

The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

More than 3,700 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, and more than 200 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s Stevie Award winners.

“The nominations submitted for The 2018 American Business Awards were outstanding. The competition was intense, and those recognized as Stevie Award winners should be immensely proud of this accomplishment,” said Michael Gallagher, president and founder of the Stevie Awards.
