Wounded Warrior ProjectReviews of woundedwarriorproject.org

Wounded warrior project is a scam. Do not donate to this so called organization. They keep the larger portion of your donation for themselves and only share a small percentage with actual veterans in need of their services. A lot of Veterans are also refused their services and have to search elsewhere for veteran services. Other disabled veterans including myself have had several discussions at the VA about wwp and have decided not to donate

I donated signed up for monthly and never received my free blanket that I was going to give to someone what a let down

VSO. tried to make me believe i should have withdrawn valid disability appeals. Last 3 VSO'S ASSIGNED TO MY CASES WERE TOTALLY NON COMMUNICATIVE AND LACKED KNOWLEDGE IN DEALING WITH SENIOR VETERANS CASES. NO ALTERNATIVE BUT TO CONTINUE TO GO THIS ON MY OWN. HIGHLY REGRET CONTACTNG THEM,.

Every December, I make donations to charities I want to support. Several years ago, I included Wounded Warriors because I wanted to support disabled veterans. After reading some bad reviews about WW, I decided to stop supporting them. Since I made that original donation I have been bombarded with direct mail requests for more money. These requests usually include some little gift, like a refrigerator magnet or some address labels. Over the last few years, inspite of my multiple requests to take me off their mailing list, these requests come on a regular basis. The cost of these mailings have far exceeded my original donation, so the veterans have gotten nothing from me. My advice, find a needy veteran (there are plenty of them) and hand them some money

On Paper and their TV Adds make this program look great but looks are deceiving. How could 100% of their donations to to Veterans while MILLIONS OF $$$ are used each year to pay their excetutive officers. Calculations show that more than 48% of donations are used to pay their EXPENSES..Plus its a known fact that disabled veterans ( depending on disabilty rating ) receive free medical care, free medications, Home and In house therapy IF NEEDED. Their homes can be made more handicapped accessible their vehicles IF NEEDED can be made for easier access and driving plus they receive Cash, tax free monthly income. Some receive mortage assistance and much more. So what is Wounded Warrior really doing. Plus they will only allow POST 911 Vets to apply for help. I would not call them phony but who are they truly helping

Extremely let down by the WWP staff's effort to follow up on a request I made for information regarding mental health resources. 4 The day I completed registration I received two calls from numbers marked as "spam" but after listening to the voicemails and calling back (within 3 minutes) I only ever reached their VMs. The same thing happened the next day, I received a call at an unspecified time from a spam number. It also only rang once so it seemed like someone was just checking the box that they called. The emails I received from these reps never indicated when I would receive calls and I work in a profession that doesn't allow cell phones in the office due to gov regulations. The only option I was given for an actual appointment to talk with someone was weeks out. Overall this experience solidified what a lot of others are saying, it seems like a scam.

This organization is full of a bunch of "Has beens" who strictly focus on what they want to do for you at thier benefit. Its no wonder that they got busted spending donor money wrongfully or atleast had accusations against them. Im sick and tired of these organizatios preaching about how they can do all these things for veterans but if you dont hit all the check marks on thier little list youre out of luck. One of these days individuals are going to see what they really do and how they are really helping. I thought the VA was stressful, trying dealing with a 12 year veteran jar head who thinks your still apart of his command team, cocky not at all "profesional individual" who doesnt want to listen to your questions or wants to talk about the good ole days to distract you from answering your question. Yeah we all remeber being in. If you want help youre better off paying for it, atleast you have some sort of obiligation or agreement instead of working with these good ole day boys. If you happen to have a rep by the name of Alshi Williams, Good luck, he'll drown you out, ignore you, tell you to figure it out, tell you he knows better than you, and will gladly remind you about how bad A he is. Can't believe donor money is being spent to give guys like this a job when thousands of vets are in need or struggling out here. Shame. ID give this org a 0 RATING if possible. I will do everything in my power to expose these people. Good luck gents

I once was a contributor to wounded warriors a while back and then I found out the president was stealing money off of the actual veterans, an increase in his very Lucrative salary. Then the government stepped in and we know what a mess it turns into when the government steps into anything. I now give to tunnel two towers, where ninety five cents out of every dollar goes directly to the veterans. I will never give another penny to wound warriors.
