The Wounded Warrior Project
The mission of the Wounded Warrior Project is to honor and empower Wounded Warriors by raising awareness and enlisting the public's aid for the needs of injured service members; helping injured service members aid and assist each other, and providing unique, direct programs and services to meet the needs of injured service members.
Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) serves veterans and service members who incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound, co-incident to their military service on or after September 11, 2001 and their families. On that date, America watched in horror as approximately 3,000 people died including hundreds of firefighters and rescue workers. Many warriors note a sense of duty to volunteer for the military following these tragic events.
Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) takes a holistic approach when serving warriors and their families to nurture the mind and body, and encourage economic empowerment and engagement. Through a high-touch and interactive approach, WWP hopes to foster the most successful, well-adjusted generation of wounded service members in our nation's history.
