People with Sales Careers Texas Helping Fallen Soldiers

People with sales careers Texas and throughout the nation in the funeral home industry can now get involved in a new project to help fallen soldiers.

The Missing in America Project works with a number of private, state, and federal organizations to uncover the identities of fallen soldiers. The nonprofit corporation is aimed at honoring and respecting the people who serve our country in military jobs by making sure they receive a proper funeral service.

Since its founding in 2007, the MIA Project has worked with the Department of Veterans Affairs, American Legion, other volunteer service and veteran organizations, local funeral homes, state funeral commissions, and state and national veterans cemetery administrations to set up funerals for fallen soldiers.

Dignity Memorial is just one of the funeral homes that has participated in the MIA Project. Dignity Memorial is the largest provider of funeral, cremation, and cemetery services in North America. The company provides care for more than 300,000 families each year.

"This will be a lengthy project and will require many man-hours to ensure that we have done our utmost to discover every forgotten veteran and procure each a dignified resting place," the MIA Project states on its website. "This will also be a labor of love, a task of redemption, for a debt of service that can never be repaid."

After this goal is met, the MIA Project plans to create a network of people to work with funeral homes and state and national agencies to ensure that in the future any unclaimed veteran will be identified and given a proper funeral service.
