| Account Spotlight – Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona |
Since 1946 JFSA has served as the central planning and fundraising organization of Southern Arizona's Jewish community. Through its own programming, as well as grants to their beneficiary agencies and local synagogues, JFSA supports a variety of essential services to meet the most pressing needs of the community at large. Funds raised by JFSA's Annual Campaign provide not only local nonsectarian services, but also support rescue and relief efforts in Israel and over 60 countries around the world.

Marlyne Freeman,
Vice President of
Women's Philanthropy |
JFSA's beneficiary agencies include Jewish Family & Children's Service, Handmaker Jewish Services for the Aging, Tucson Jewish Community Center, Tucson Hebrew Academy and University of Arizona Hillel Foundation. Sponsorship of JFSA provides needed dollars and support to all of these agencies, as well as vital programming in Tucson and Southern Arizona.
Recently, American Valet teamed up with JFSA to become one of their Business Partners. Our sponsorship will help JFSA events such as the Tikkun Circle, Women's Philanthropy Connections, Super Sunday, Men's Night Out, their Annual Meeting, and their Campaign Kickoff. We are proud of our sponsorship with JFSA and we look forward to continual years of service to JFSA and the community.

| American Valet Becomes More Efficient |
 |
With a mission to provide the most efficient accounting, payroll, and billing department, American Valet has tapped Vital Partners of Tempe, AZ for help. When Mike Pendergraft started his operation out of his garage in 1980, no one expected it would soon boast 70 account locations and over 560 employees in two states. In 2007, Mike Pendergraft, President, and Jim Bourdamis, CFO realized it was time to upgrade the accounting and revenue reporting system....quickly. The labor and time spent in organizing various excel spreadsheets, never ending data entry, cumbersome payroll process, and antiquated invoice tracking led to a discussion with Vital Partners."We looked at three different vendors in our software search and Vital Partners was the best option for our complex payroll needs," says Mike Pendergraft, President."The challenges with varying pay rates, tips, and employees moving from one location to another were no problem for the Microsoft Dynamics GP solution that Vital Partners offered. The solution was able to accommodate our unique needs within our complex business divisions." Currently, American Valet offers three distinct services, each with its own unique billing systems; valet, shuttle operations, and parking garage management. More and more companies are looking to streamline certain business functions and accounting, payroll, and billing is a popular choice for smaller organizations like American Valet."We can do more with this technology, with less people, in less time," says Jim Bourdamis, Chief Financial Officer of American Valet. American Valet continues to look into using technology to automate processes, including text messaging software where every single employee can be notified of an open shift in seconds on their cell phone. By leveraging technology to better use employees' time and effort, American Valet strives to continually improve client satisfaction and loyalty.
