Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

On January 29, 2010, CrowdGather, Inc. (“Registrant”) dismissed Mendoza Berger & Company, LLP (“Mendoza”) as the Registrant’s principal accountant effective on such date. The reports of Mendoza on the Registrant’s financial statements for fiscal years 2009 and 2008 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, with the exception of a qualification with respect to uncertainty as to the Registrant’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Registrant engaged Quintanilla Accountancy Corporation (“Quintanilla”) as its new principal accountant effective as of January 29, 2010. The decision to change accountants was recommended and approved by the Registrant’s Board of Directors.

During fiscal years 2009 and 2008, and the subsequent interim period through January 29, 2010, the date of dismissal, there were no disagreements with Mendoza on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Mendoza, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report, nor were there any reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.

The Registrant engaged Quintanilla as the Registrant’s new independent accountant as of January 29, 2010.  During fiscal years 2009 and 2008, and the subsequent interim period through January 29, 2010, the Registrant nor anyone on the Registrant’s behalf engaged Quintanilla regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant’s financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event,” both as such terms are defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K.

The Registrant has made the contents of this Form 8-K available to Mendoza and requested it to furnish a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission as to whether Mendoza agrees or disagrees with, or wishes to clarify the Registrant’s expression of its views. A copy of such letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.
