ACA of Texas Announces Contribution and Support of ARMing Heroes

LINDALE, Texas — The American Collectors Association of Texas, a professional association whose membership is comprised of Texas collection agencies, collection attorneys, and vendor affiliates, proudly announces its support, both professionally and monetarily, to ARMing Heroes.

ARMing Heroes is a not-for-profit foundation that is working to assist veterans with their transition back to civilian life. It accomplishes this mission by directly connecting veterans with companies in the accounts receivables management (ARM) industry, to provide veterans with opportunities in all aspects of debt related issues.

"We believe in ARMing Heroes and its efforts to support the military service men and women who have so honorably served our nation," said ACA of Texas Executive Director Tom Morgan.  "Veterans too often come home from battle and face difficult financial challenges, in addition to the physical and emotional wounds they incurred as a result of their selfless service to our country."

According to ARMing Heroes, the organization uniquely positions the ARM industry to help veterans with finding job opportunities, job training, business development mentoring, financial counseling, direct grants, and debt reduction and elimination (No Debts for Vets).
