DALLAS, Nov. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ACE Cash Express (ACE), a Populus Financial Group brand, raised $44,456 for Back on My Feet during ACE's annual fundraising event, the Give A Little Campaign. This year, ACE supported the Los Angeles, Denver, Baltimore and Fort Lauderdale chapters. Populus Financial Group also made an annual corporate donation of $100,000 to Back on My Feet.

Back on My Feet seeks to revolutionize the way society approaches homelessness.

For all in need, they aim to provide practical training and employment resources for achieving independence; an environment that promotes accountability; and a community that offers compassion and hope.

"At Back on My Feet, we know that strong community ties are critical to the success of our members," said Katy Sherratt, Back on My Feet CEO.

"Thanks to our customers' support, members have the opportunity to obtain education, employment and housing, ultimately reaching their goal of independence."

The Give A Little Campaign is a national in-store fundraiser that supports charities chosen by ACE employees. The charities selected are those focused on helping children, supporting education, and promoting financial literacy. By supporting Back on My Feet, ACE can help individuals combat homelessness through the power of running, community support and essential employment and housing resources.

Nationally, the 2021 Give A Little Campaign raised more than $188,000 for the local chapters of charities across the country including AdoptAClassroom.org, Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, Autism Speaks, Back on My Feet, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Feeding America's Local Food Banks, Homes For Our Troops, Humane Society of the United States, National Breast Cancer Foundation, Save the Children, and Triumph Over Kid Cancer.
