Mission Statement
This Foundation helps the spouses and children of our wounded military and civilian heroes cope with this devastating kind of family disaster which is happening all too often in light of the wartime and terrorist environment that is with us today! We provide retraining for the spouses that want and/or need it, scholarship assistance for the spouses and children, financial assistance and help in every way that we can to help preserve family unity and happiness! Pre-school and grades 1-12 are especially the concentration! All too often the families are the “forgotten few” who in reality sacrifice daily as their spouses defend our freedoms and security. As many of you know firsthand; and others of you can certainly imagine the toll it takes on that family when the dad or mom is wounded seriously or worse
. PLEASE PAUSE, THINK & SPONSOR THIS CAUSE.
HELP THE CHILDREN
Your sponsorship is crucial to the ongoing survivorship and success of this new foundation. Not to be confused with the Wounded Warrior Project, this Foundation “THE WOUNDED WARRIOR FAMILY FOUNDATION” is a new foundation taking root in Alabama where there are several military bases where wounded warriors live. We are hopeful of working with The Wounded Warrior DOD offices at major bases such as Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville and Ft. Rucker in Dothan as starters with plans to expand throughout the State of Alabama and adjacent states; and the nationally since this is, in fact, a national outreach with beneficiaries in all States requiring assistance. This Foundation strives to help the spouses and children of our killed or seriously wounded military and civilian heroes who have a very hard and devastating time trying to cope with these family problems. They need encouragement, hope, help, and financial integration to advance their family unity and recovery from these terrible consequences of war.
