Federal Managers Benefit from New GSA Parking Program

Glow Parking ensures the Federal government receives the best value in airport parking

KANSAS CITY, Mo.(June 24, 2009) — The recent economic downturn has affected nearly every facet of our daily lives. As consumers shift and re-adjust their spending habits, so too is the U.S. Government. All levels of government are working to reduce spending and increase accountability in several areas, including airport parking.

In July 2008, the U.S. Government, through its General Services Administration (GSA), awarded a five-year contract to Glow Parking, LLC, a Service Disabled Veteran Owned business, to provide a nationwide airport parking program for Federal Government employees. As the first GSA schedule holder for airport parking, Glow presents the best value to the government traveler at all of Glow Parking’s locations. Glow’s parking program helps lower the Federal government’s overall spend while also providing a robust reporting infrastructure to increase accountability.

“Glow Parking is honored to partner with the Federal government to offer safe and secure parking choices at more than 100 airport parking facilities nationwide,” said Troy Prewitt, Chief Financial Officer for Glow Parking LLC. “Federal government employees are guaranteed a parking space at negotiated GSA pricing when they make a reservation through Glow Parking’s online reservation system. Furthermore, the Glow Parking Program allows the Federal Government to track individual parking and evaluate trends and spending while potentially saving the Federal government millions each year in airport parking expenses.”

To take advantage of the Glow Parking Program for government, visit www.glowparking.com.

Glow Parking Names Veterans of Foreign Wars Foundation as Primary Charity

KANSAS CITY, Mo.July 29, 2009 —The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Foundation has been named the primary charity of Glow Parking, LLC.

The VFW Foundation is expected to receive 1% of the company’s net profit over the next twenty years. Travelers can reserve guaranteed best value airport parking nationwide by utilizing Glow Parking’s online reservation system.

We are proud to announce today the beginning of what we hope will be a long-lasting partnership with the Veterans of Foreign Wars Foundation," said Troy Prewitt, Chief Financial Officer for Glow Parking. "As a Service Disabled Veteran Owned business based in Kansas City, we recognize and appreciate the important and unique role the VFW plays in our community.”

The VFW Foundation offers a variety of beneficial programs (all of which are implemented without cost to recipients). These include providing financial assistance to military families for rent, mortgage, utilities, vehicle repair, medical expenses and food/basic assistance – over $2.7 million awarded so far! The VFW Foundation also enables free communication options for troops in Iraq/Afghanistan and those they love back in the U.S. For example, the VFW Foundation has distributed over 11 million long-distance telephone cards and 33 million free long distance minutes. Moreover, VFW Veterans Service representatives recovered an astonishing $1.2 billion last year on behalf of veterans in their entitlement dealings with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Annually VFW members and its Auxiliary contribute more than 12.8 million hours of volunteerism in the community, including participation in Make A Difference Day and National Volunteer Week, and provide $2.1 million in college scholarships to middle and high school students.

Glow Parking, LLC, has singled out several VFW Foundation initiatives for funding such as their “Salute to Military Families” program. This will assist in sponsoring our troop support and morale boosting events. One example is our “VFW Racing” program which allows military personnel and their families to attend a NASCAR event as VIP’s for-a-day. Other support from Glow Parking will be used for the above mentioned scholarship and Veterans Service programs with the balance designated toward unrestricted program implementation to be determined.

The Veterans of Foreign Wars Foundation is extremely pleased to be the primary charity partner of Glow Parking, LLC,” said Daniel M. Shea, VFW Foundation Director, “The wonderful generosity of Glow Parking is quite timely as it will allow us to continue many of our beneficial and urgently needed programs. Mr. Shea also recognized John G. Lowe, Foundation Deputy Director, and the entire staff for their efforts in developing this tremendous partnership with Glow Parking, LLC.
