Determined to solidify Mississippi’s ranking as the number one state in the U.S. for gains in 4th grade reading on the National Assessment of Educational Progress, entrepreneur Katina Holliday, founder of the nonprofit Holliday’s Helping Hands in Los Angeles, recently sponsored a reading tutoring program for students at Belle Elementary School in her hometown of Aberdeen, MI. The Life Enhancement and Academic Development (LEAD) project provided tutors for a six-month period where they helped students hone their reading skills through culturally appropriate materials.

“While helping improve their reading abilities, the LEAD program also focused on content that taught them about character building and the importance of family engagement,” says Holliday, who said that all of the participating students were 4th graders. “What better way to give back to my hometown than to invest in our greatest resource — our children.”

In addition to emphasizing the importance of building vocabulary, increasing fluency and creating greater comprehension, the tutoring sessions worked closely with students to develop their love for reading.

“These kids want to learn and the LEAD program was a great stepping stone as they further their education,” adds Holliday. “It’s been rewarding to see many of the students now favoring books over video games. If we can continue on this track, they will, no doubt, have a brighter future.”

Miss Holliday established her eponymous nonprofit in 2018 to help LA County’s general homeless population as well as young mothers recently released from incarceration. Holliday’s Helping Hands (HHH) has created a formula that has been especially productive for clients that involves them developing “roadmaps” for their futures.

These are detailed, comprehensive plans that help them hone their lifestyle skills, plan home budgets, prepare for job interviews and become good neighbors and citizens. HHH’s Shine Ambassador Program then trains and prepares them for jobs in various fields including food service, landscape maintenance, screen printing and customer service. HHH currently boasts a workforce of 200 who possess a range of skills from social work to maintenance.

PHOENIX, AZ (July 11, 2022) – Arizona Capitol Times, Best Companies Group, and BestCompaniesAZ announced today that KEYSTONE LAW FIRM has earned a spot on the 10th annual list of the 2022 Top Companies to Work for in Arizona.

This highly selective list is the result of anonymous and comprehensive employee surveys measuring culture, work environment, leadership, and employee pride and satisfaction, combined with rigorous evaluations of workplace practices, policies, perks, and demographics.

“This year’s top companies were selected based on the results of very high favorable employee survey scores, averaging 90% overall survey results and an impressive 91% overall employee engagement. This level of performance for Arizona companies is about three times the national average when compared to Gallup’s recent reporting of US engagement at about 33% favorable,” says Jaime Zepeda, EVP, Best Companies Group. “These winners should be very proud of their Top Companies status for this presents a powerful opportunity to attract and retain the very best talent.”

“We are honored to have received this award! It’s great to have this recognition,” said Francisco Sirvent, founder/owner of Keystone Law Firm. Sirvent also went on to say that he cannot stand how he has seen other employers treat their employees; he witnessed bosses working staff 100 hours per week, yelling at employees, not allowing staff to take lunch breaks.”

Employee Testimonials:

“I can honestly say that Keystone Law Firm is an awesome place to work; everyone is so positive, and the environment is one of the healthiest, most supportive I have ever worked for in my 25-year career,” said Courtney Lage, Community Liaison for the firm.

Keystone Law Firm’s most senior employee had this to say, “It’s hard to find an employer in this industry who is as compassionate as Francisco Sirvent. I joined the firm because of the opportunity for growth, but I stay because of his philosophy. We make sure to hire people who align with our core values and mission. We constantly ask for feedback from our employees in order to improve our systems so that they work better for them. We celebrate our employees because they give the majority of their waking hours to us. I am so thankful for all of the kind-hearted individuals who gravitate toward Keystone Law Firm.”

Other employees shared the following about working at Keystone Law Firm:

“I love the type of work we do in helping people. It’s very rewarding. It’s also the first time in my career that I have had the opportunity to make decisions to better my position.”

“I enjoy working with people I like to help the community at difficult times and with difficult issues.”

“The culture at Keystone Law Firm is completely refreshing; working for an employer who values self-growth in all aspects is life-changing. The consistent encouragement from leadership is highly valued and appreciated. In this field where we are reminded of the mantra ‘life is fleeting’ every single day, Keystone Law Firm ensures their employees are valued, and they are supported in prioritizing family and personal health.”

“I enjoy the freedom to work at our own pace…, the fact that we are encouraged to get to know each other and work as a team, the openness to suggestions and change of procedures and I genuinely love our standards in the level of compassion and care for our clients (even the difficult ones!).”

Keystone Law Firm’s Mission, Purpose, Vision, And Promise:

At Keystone Law Firm, their mission is to help families get their financial houses in order. Their purpose is to help people steward their relationships and their resources. Their vision is to see families providing for their loved ones, living out their purposes in life free from the worry of money, and leaving this world a better place after they’re gone. Their promise is to affirm others’ strengths and protect others’ weaknesses, to treat others the way they want to be treated, to extend grace to the teachable, to seek first to understand before trying to be understood, to challenge the status quo, to give others the benefit of the doubt, and to praise in public and correct in private.

The top companies will be honored at a virtual event on August 23, and a special supplemental listing of the rankings will be published by Arizona Capitol Times and BestCompaniesAZ on August 26.

ERTC Express has today made public 4 as yet unreleased facts about its ERTC rebate filing service. This service is available now. Businesses should start the qualification process immediately to avoid losing out on this government program.

The 4 items include nuggets such as how:

While the ERTC was created in the CARES act along with the PPP Loans – this is not a loan, there is no repayment. There are no restrictions for what recipients of the credit must use the funds.

The ERTC was established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, and provides a credit to business owners based on qualified employee wages and health plan expenses paid after March 12, 2020 and before Oct 1st, 2021.

The ERTC program is a refundable tax credit for business owners in 2020 and 2021. In 2020, a credit is available up to $5,000 per employee from 3/12/20-12/31/20 by an eligible employer. That is a potential of up to $5,000 per employee. In 2021 the ERC increased to $7,000 paid per employee per quarter for Q1, Q2, and Q3. That is a potential of up to $26,000 per employee.

Start-up businesses who began operations after February 15, 2020 can take a credit of up to $50,000 in both the third and fourth quarters of 2021 for a maximum credit of $100,000.

ERTC Express is quoted saying: “We like to do things to connect with our customers. Things like free, no obligation pre-qualification, excellent communication, and releasing these little factoids even after the ERTC rebate filing service hits the market are what make all the difference.”

Even if a business received PPP funding, they are likely still eligible for an ERTC refund under the adjusted program guidelines. The CPA experts at ERTC Express only file ERTC claims and are leading the industry in maximizing benefits for eligible businesses.

By answering a few, simple, non-invasive questions the team of ERTC experts can determine if a business will likely qualify for a no-strings-attached tax credit. There is no cost or obligation to be pre-qualified.

The ERTC rebate filing service has been live for since 2021. To find out more, it’s possible to visit http://www.yourertcrebatenow.com

The company’s latest services focus on the needs of commercial retail strips and shopping centers. They range from full building management to more specialized needs, such as tenant representation, administrative support, and marketing services.

More details can be found at: https://www.ngiassetmgmt.com

It is not uncommon for commercial property owners to engage the services of a professional property management firm. However, in many cases, services offered do not meet the unique demands of the client or the property in question. With the latest announcement, NGI Asset Management addresses many of those concerns.

Depending on their size and complexity, commercial properties involve a number of management demands that are both time-consuming and often require expert advice. They can include, but are not limited to, maintenance and repairs, project management, insurance and risk management, regulatory compliance, and marketing or leasing of individual spaces.

Retail strips and shopping centers can pose their own set of challenges, owing to high volumes of public access, along with the unique demands of retail tenants. The flexibility offered by the company’s updated services allows owners and investors to choose a property management solution that best suits their needs.

As an example, a smaller retail strip may not require assistance with staff management or daily administrative tasks. Preventative and reactive maintenance, however, may be beyond their area of expertise. In such cases, NGI Asset Management can provide the support functions which they are unable to manage in-house.

About NGI Asset Management

A family-owned and operated firm, NGI Asset Management provides services throughout Westchester County, New York City, Hudson Valley, and Lower Connecticut. Managing Director Paul Dedvukaj was involved in managing the family’s property portfolio from an early age, and now applies that experience to the development of unique and innovative property management solutions.

A company representative stated: “We offer a full range of real estate services that we ensure will meet our owners and investors every need. Our strength lies in the diversity of services offered, including organizing owner’s portfolios, accelerating growth, finding hidden value, and planning an exit strategy.”

The locally owned and operated commercial roofing contractor is now providing complimentary estimates for its work, as well as a two-year warranty.

More information is available at https://colonyroofers.com/commercial-roofer

Building owners can now look to Colony Roofers for rapid, reliable, and cost-effective solutions that get their commercial spaces back up and running as quickly as possible while ensuring the safety of employees and customers.

The company recognizes that the local Atlanta climate combines weather extremes, with long, hot summers, fall-time rain, and storms that can damage roofs throughout the year. Roofing emergencies caused by weather damage can lead to company downtime and halt operations, costing businesses and organizations money.

As such, it is essential to find a roofing company with experience working on large-scale commercial projects, such as complete roof replacements for offices, warehouses, and retail premises. Colony Roofers will quickly and accurately assess the condition of the roof in order to devise a plan of action that prevents further damage.

The team will then calculate a transparent estimate based on the scope of the project, the type of material required, the height of the building, and the square footage of the roof.

The fully trained and certified contractors have over ten years of experience in the Greater Atlanta area, during which time they have developed the skills they need to complete roof installations, re-roofs, and metal roof repair work. The company can complete roofing work on apartment complexes, multi-family housing, agricultural buildings, healthcare facilities, offices, and retail centers.

The team has a range of services available, including TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin), built-up layering, high-density foam, low-maintenance metal, and cool roofing which helps moderate temperatures inside a building. The A+ BBB (Better Business Bureau) rated company will provide constant communication about the progress of the project and complete work in a timely manner.

A spokesperson for the company said, “If you have a commercial roof in Atlanta, GA that needs to be repaired or replaced, let us take care of it. In only a matter of days, we can have your roof back in great shape and looking fantastic.”
