Arizona Green Business | Tony's Auto Service Center

Tony's Auto Service Center, on the Northeast corner of 56th Street and Thomas, started in 1988 as Tony’s Texaco, a two-bay gas station. The gas had to be pulled out one year later when a leak was detected in one of the underground lines. The pumps were pulled and the ground cleaned and extensive remodeling done to improve the appearance and functionality of this auto garage.

Today Tony's Auto Service Center is at the forefront of the environmental "green" movement. They are a certified "green" shop by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ). When you drive by you might notice an array of solar panels on the roof; the solar panel project was completed in February 2009.

This two-year project caps 20 years of "staying clean and going green" for Tony's, doing their part to protect and exemplify the character and responsibility of the Arcadia neighborhood tradition.

To Whom It May Concern:

Tony's Service Center has been a continued sponsor for cancer research, through the pageant systems since 2005.

As a pageant contestant, my platform has been Cancer Awareness. As Ms. Avondale U.S. 2005 and Mrs. Arizona United Nations 2006, I represented my city and state at multiple levels of competition.

Tony's Service Center has continued to support me, and my endeavors to find a cure. Tony’s Service Center, again in 2006 supported the Worldwide Pageant system, which is deemed the "Crowns for the Cure," at a national level. Their support then followed me Internationally, as I won Ms. Worldwide International 2008.

Tony's Service Center helped contribute over $6,000 dollars to the American Cancer Society, through the Worldwide Pageant System. Tony’s will be recognized as a major contributor to the Worldwide Pageant in 2010, in which the International Pageant will be held in Tempe, Arizona. You can visit either my Web site at www.mrsaz.net or the International Web site at www.worldwidepageant.net.

Best Regards,
