Spire Continues Community Outreach in Q3 With Veterans and Local School Support

LOCKPORT, N.Y. — Spire Recovery Solutions, a respected and compliant collection agency headquartered in Lockport, NY, continued its community outreach efforts with another involved quarter focusing on veterans support and the local school district. 

In July, Spire donated to Taps, a national nonprofit organization providing compassionate care and comprehensive resources for all those grieving the death of a military or veteran loved one. In August, the Spire Recovery Solutions team supported The Freedom 13, an organization working closely with veterans and their families to honor every American Hero that made the ultimate sacrifice. In September, Spire kicked off the new school year by supporting the local Wrestling team at the Royalton-Hartland School District. 

“At Spire Recovery Solutions, we believe that success is not solely measured by financial achievements but also by the positive impact we have on the communities we serve,” said Joseph Torriere, President of Spire Recovery Solutions. “My brother and I began this organization both as veterans of the U.S. Military. Our commitment to community outreach is at the heart of our mission and veterans support will always be at the forefront of our minds.” 

TAPS

The Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors or, TAPS, plays a vital role in our society by providing compassionate care and comprehensive resources for individuals grieving the loss of a military loved one. TAPS recognizes the unique and often challenging journey that bereaved military families and veterans endure. TAPS not only offers solace and support during these difficult times but also fosters a sense of community where individuals can connect with others who understand their pain. 

Through their services, they ensure that those who have sacrificed for our nation, and their families, are not left to navigate the grieving process alone. In 2022, TAPS connected with 8,849 newly bereaved loved ones, adding to the nearly 100,000 military survivors currently receiving support from the organization. TAPS answered over 25,623 calls, resolved over 6,397 casework challenges, secured over $3.9 million dollars in retroactive benefits for survivors and connected military survivors with over $215 million dollars in education benefits. 

The Freedom 13

The Freedom 13 is a unique nonprofit organization working to secure recreational retreats in each state, offering a place that veterans and their families can use, free of charge, to reconnect, bond, or strengthen old relationships and make new ones with families in similar situations. Each village will be unique and have additional assistance programs like PTSD counseling, job training, search, and placement, and service dog help and placement. 

The Freedom 13 began as an organization to remember a team of 13 U.S. military heroes who lost their lives on the front lines. Jared’s parents began the nonprofit to start the Recreational Villages Project and continue to honor the legacy of Jared, Nicole, David, Darin, Ryan, Hunter, Dylan, Kareem, Rylee, Daegan, Johanny, Maxton, and Humberto. 

Royalton-Hartland School District

Community involvement goes beyond business success; it’s about making a positive impact where we live and work. Supporting Spire’s local schools and youth sports programs helps foster a sense of unity and camaraderie within its community. It provides opportunities for young athletes to learn valuable life skills such as discipline, teamwork, and perseverance, which are integral to their personal and academic growth. By investing in initiatives like the wrestling team, Spire not only promotes physical fitness and sportsmanship but also nurtures the next generation of community leaders. 

In addition, with many of its employees’ families attending these schools, Spire thought it was important to continue to support our employees in every way possible. The team is one cohesive family in and out of the office.
