HIGHLIGHTS

  • Veterans Paddle Out for Competition with Wounded Warrior Project

    MIDDLE RIVER, Md. (August 16, 2016) – During a recent Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) program gathering, wounded warriors and their guests had the opportunity to try something new – monster stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). These supersized boards are 18 feet long and inflatable, and can accommodate three to six people. The fun day on the water allowed injured veterans to get to know each other in a relaxed setting, while being physically active. 

    “Just having something to look forward to and getting out of the house helps me in so many ways,” said Army veteran Rich Davis. “It was an awesome experience to see people I already know and meet other veterans. It’s usually hard for me to talk to new people, but everyone there was so cool and just wanted to have fun.”

  • Wounded Warrior Project Hosts Seminar for Healthy Lifestyles

    Jericho, N.Y. (August 16, 2016) – One of the biggest challenges wounded veterans face during their recovery is living healthy and active lifestyles. Years of regimented physical training during military service can be a far cry from the level of physical activity they experience in civilian life. Combined with bodily injuries that may limit movements or exercise, it can be difficult for wounded veterans to maintain their health. That is why Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) hosts programs and summits that help warriors explore healthy lifestyles through fitness training, nutrition, and cooking.

    When Air National Guard veteran Peter Grajewski walked into his first WWP program gathering, a fitness summit, he didn’t know anyone but quickly recognized other warriors were there for the same reason.

  • Wounded Warrior Project Strengthens Bodies and Minds Alongside Salukis

    CARBONDALE, Ill. (August 15, 2016) – Southern Illinois University put its hospitality on display – and guests to the test – during a recent group workout hosted at its state-of-the-art training facilities. Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) sponsored the gathering and gave a group of wounded veterans the chance to come together and learn more about how to live healthy and active lifestyles.

    “The facilities were very impressive, and the trainers and staff were incredible hosts,” said Army veteran Jarvis Brinson. “The WWP staff really made an effort to make us feel at home. I knew some staff members from previous health and wellness events, and again they were incredible ambassadors for the warriors there.”

(August 12, 2016) – During a recent Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) program gathering, a couple opened their lake house to injured veterans and their families for a day of summer fun. This was the third event of its kind hosted by Frank and Jodi Bondurant, longtime WWP supporters. 

    “We are pleased to honor those who have served and continue to sacrifice for our freedom,” Frank said. “We feel that the families have been affected in a big way by the wounds of war.”

  • Wounded Warrior Project Helps Students Gear Up for School

    JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (August 12, 2016) – Kids across the country are returning to the classroom, and that means back-to-school shopping for their parents. Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) knows picking up pencils, folders, notepads, and index cards can get costly, so the organization recently invited warrior families in Jacksonville to gather and gear up, free of charge.

    Along with pens and No. 2 pencils, injured veterans and their families collected markers, highlighters, notebook paper, and everything they need to be ready to succeed in school.
