    1. Facings of America announced it exceeded its $60K fundraising goal for its 2023 Design for Dogs event supporting the Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA.

    3. Ernst & Young LLP has announced that EPS Group CEO Kathey Wagner was named an Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2023 Pacific Southwest Award finalist.
