Anonymous Good Samaritan Registers ARMing Heroes for AmazonSmile Program

ARMing Heroes, the collection industry’s charity for military veterans, is now seeking the identity of the “Good Samaritan” who registered the charity as an Amazon.com authorized funds recipient with the shopping giant’s AmazonSmile program.

The program allows Amazon.com consumers to designate ARMing Heroes as their charity of choice, so that every purchase the person makes results in a donation of 0.5% of the purchase price to the charity in support of military veterans.

To do this, a person must first have an Amazon shopping account (www.amazon.com), which is free to create. Once the person has an account, the person must specify ARMing Heroes as their charity of choice, and then log into the Amazon site using this link only: https://smile.amazon.com/ch/26-4469899

The charity’s flagship No Debts for Vets Charity Fundraising Drive runs from September 11^th through Veterans Day, November 11^th every year.  This year’s drive has resulted in a surge of support for veterans and will result in another announcement next week on the results. Tax-deductible donations are still being accepted online at www.armingheroes.org and via mail to PO Box 353, Collingswood, NJ 08108, payable to ARMing Heroes. Pledges may be made to info@armingheroes.org.

The individual who registered the charity for the AmazonSmile program, or anyone who has information on who this person may be, is encouraged to contact the charity by phone at 877-535-1776.
