HS Financial Group to Take Lead for Vets in NE Ohio

Collingswood, NJ – ARMing Heroes (www.armingheroes.org), the collection industry’s charity for military veterans, is pleased to announce that HS Financial Group of Cleveland, Ohio (www.hsfgroup.net), a long-time donor, has agreed to promote the ARMing Heroes grant-making program to other organizations within Cuyahoga County, Ohio, to increase awareness and local involvement with the charity. As part its increased participation level, HS Financial will raise dollars among staff with corporate matching, engage other local businesses to get involved, get the word out among local veterans, and earmark dollars raised for in-county grant applicants who otherwise qualify for the charity’s programs.

Ken Wojtach, Chief Operating Officer, will champion the program, and plans to lead the charge by drawing on his three decades of experience to drive the program’s success. Additionally, his personal connection to veterans fuels his motivation to see the charity succeed. “Six of my uncles served in World War II, and one was a tower sharpshooter who lost his life when gunned down by a sniper,” Ken commented, continuing, “With such a deep connection to vets and a strong family history of commitment to military service, this is a cause I truly care about, one that I’m proud to be part of, and I want to do everything I can to help it grow.” In the months ahead, Wojtach plans to promote ARMing Heroes to other ARM firms and creditors in northeast Ohio and beyond.

HS Financial Group’s owner, Timothy Sullivan, is a Navy veteran himself, making HS Financial is a certified veteran-owned small business. The company plans to get its own employees on board to support the charity by offering a voluntary payroll deduction option beginning in January 2016 that will continue throughout the year. “Being a veteran-owned small business within the accounts receivable industry gives us first-hand knowledge of the financial challenges our veterans face every day,” Sullivan remarked, continuing, “We’re in a unique position to help, we’re able to give back, and we’re honored to do so.”
