OnCentive Amplifies Support for Veterans with Second-Annual 'Salute to Our Heroes' Fundraising Event

Nation’s Leading Tax Credit Consultancy Aims to Surpass Last Year’s $100,000 Donation Mark, Unveils Collaborative Employer Education Program with Hire Heroes USA



OnCentive, the nation’s lead tax credit consultancy, is excited to announce the second-annual “Salute to Our Heroes'' fundraiser on Thursday, June 22, 2023 from 6:00-10:00 pm. This charitable event directly supports Hire Heroes USA, a distinguished nonprofit committed to empowering US military members, veterans and spouses to succeed in the civilian workforce.


Held at the historic downtown Birmingham, Alabama venue,
The Florentine, the second-annual fundraiser will include dinner, drinks, music, and a silent auction with all proceeds from this event benefiting Hire Heroes USA. 


Doors open at 6 pm with a social hour allowing guests the opportunity to enjoy cocktails while exploring an array of intriguing auction items. Attendees will hear inspiring talks from veterans who have benefited from Hire Heroes USA's complimentary career services and a keynote address from OnCentive's visionary CEO, Shannon Scott. The night will commence with a silent auction, where guests can bid on numerous items such as exclusive vacation packages, celebrity memorabilia, and autographed sports collectibles.


The event is expected to draw a crowd of over 200 philanthropists, industry leaders, and community members, and is open to the public. Tickets are $50 and can be purchased on
OnCentive’s website.


This event coincides with the launch of OnCentive’s and Hire Heroes USA’s employer education program. The collaborative program offers a wealth of resources for employers, emphasizing the significant advantages of hiring veterans and explaining the financial incentives available through the
Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) program.


"Hire Heroes USA is excited to partner again with OnCentive to not only empower more transitioning service members and veterans through its donation pledge but also to expand the resources we provide our partnered employers through education," said Elizabeth Reyes, Director of Corporate Partnerships at Hire Heroes USA. "We are grateful for their support and partnership, and we look forward to making a meaningful impact together for military families."


Last year, OnCentive's inaugural “Salute to Our Heroes'' event succeeded in
raising an impressive $100,000 for Hire Heroes USA. Funds from the event enabled Hire Heroes USA to expand and extend a comprehensive suite of free career services such as personalized coaching, resume building, mentoring, workshops, job boards, career fairs, and more to veterans and military spouses.


Sponsorship opportunities and silent auction donations are still available for those wishing to support this impactful veteran-focused nonprofit. For more information, please reach out to
