Insight

Perspective on the bigger picture, informed by in-depth and up-to-date analysis. Our goal is to help you get to where you want to be.

Support

We provide each client the care they deserve. Whether it’s dealing with the CRA, or helping raise financing, we’ll be there for you.

 
 

Our Commitment

  • Donate 10% of profits

    Each year, we donate the equivalent of 10% of our profits via financial contributions or pro-bono services. We donate to non-profits, charities, and indigenous organizations doing the most critical work to support the environment and the communities we operate in.

  • Offset emissions

    We prioritize methods of meeting that do not involve business travel. When we must travel, we offset our emissions by purchasing carbon offset credits.

  • Our voice

    As a business and accounting firm, our ability to speak with decision-makers is often amplified. We aim to use this voice to promote policies that further the well-being of people and environment.

  • Reduce impact

    We prioritize using electronic means of transmitting information. When we must print, we do so double-sided and use only 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper.

Projects we support

  • Ancient Forest Alliance

    The Ancient Forest Alliance (AFA) is a registered non-profit organization working to protect BC’s endangered old-growth forests and to ensure a sustainable, value-added, second-growth forest industry.

  • Founder

    It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more.

Fletcher founded Arrowmaker in 2017 with the goal of bringing affordable and reliable accounting services to non-profits, artists, and small businesses in the West Kootenays. Since then, Fletcher has provided value to a wide variety of organizations across the non-profit, public, and educational spectrum.

Fletcher’s clients consistently say the same thing: they feel better after talking with him. His relaxed demeanor, caring attitude, and technical expertise make him an easy choice to become an arrow in your quiver of trusted advisors.

“Your financial situation should not cause you stress.”

– Fletcher FitzGibbon

Thierry became a CPA in 2020 and has since gained experience working primarily with non-profit and public sector clients in Quebec and British Columbia. Thierry joined Arrowmaker as a partner in 2022 with the goal of continuing to offer Arrowmaker’s quality personalized accounting services throughout the West Kootenays.

Thierry enjoys bringing clarity to areas that others might see as chaos. To him, there is nothing more satisfying than diving into a messy accounting puzzle and organizing it into a clear picture.

“If I wasn’t an accountant, I’d be a cleaning person.”

- Thierry Cochaux-Laberge
