The Government Finance Officers Association (or GFOA) is a professional association of state, provincial, and local government finance officers in the United States and Canada.

The GFOA sponsors award programs designed to encourage good financial reporting, for financial documents including the Comprehensive annual financial report, or CAFR, and the annual budget. They also sponsor the Frank L. Greathouse Government Scholarship each year for use by a college senior preparing for a career in state or local government finance.
